Bakslag = Setback | ||
 | ||
| Have to explain about bakslag: (setback) The snow is melting and you think: now it soon will be spring. Then suddenly winter is back. then we say. "bakslag". | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-05. There were green fiches in a bird feeder in our street. That was a lovely sign of spring. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-17. There were ducks in the river. I fed them. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-17. These ducks started following me on the path :-) | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-17. Ice floe on the river. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-17. There was much ice on the river by the marina. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-17. A crow on the ice. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-17. These ducks were standing on one leg on the ice. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-17. The marina. No boats can be here in winter. They take away the landing stages from land. So nobody will go there. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-17. Ice breaking. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-26. I walked by the river. The ice is slowly breaking | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-26. The ice breaking is also a sign of spring. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-26. Ice on the river | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-26. Here more ice was gone. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-26. Ducks on the river. Because here is most open water. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-26. A male duck was chasing away a duck couple. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-26. The old bridge. It was cold and windy but I had good clothes. And my hood on. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-26. After the walk I went to the store Utopia. There it was warm and cosy. This was a little children playground in the store. I like the foxes. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-26. But this playground was only open in 3 days because of the opening of the new store. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-31. I awoke 05-30. Then it still was dark. I saw this when I looked out of the window. We had got a lot of snow. | ||
 | ||
|
2015-03-31. It soon should be
Easter but it looked like Christmas! | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-31. It looked nice, but I was not happy the winter came back. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-31. Snow in our street. The tractor came to plow the snow from the road so the bus could go. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-31. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-31. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-31. Later on the day the snow melt on the road there they plowed. But they had now plowed the sidewalk. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-31. This road was not plowed yet. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-31. I had to go in deep snow slush. Fortunately my new water proof boots worked well. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-31 | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-31. I was so happy to have my daffodils on the table. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-03-31. I appreciated them very much while we had no spring outside yet. | ||
|
Signs of spring | ||
 | ||
|
2015-04-01. I took a walk by the
river again. This picture is a selfie. Reflection from the window of the culture house. And turned the right way in Photoshop. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-04-01. But a part of the park was under the snow. | ||

2015-04-01. Yesterday, on my way
home from the grocery shop, I heard and saw some swans flying over me. They flew
in the direction of the river. I woman I met by the river told me
she had seen 3 swans by the marina. But they flew away. Later the
swans will have babies. But it's too early for this yet. Here a picture of a swan family. Taken by the island Norrbyskär in the year 2007. I put in it here to illustrate my story. | ||
 | ||
|
I took this picture
2004 from a boat near Trysunda island. Also this picture I put in to
illustrate my story about swans. 2015-04-01. It was another sign of spring to see the swans flying over yesterday. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-04-01. There was snow and ice on the view point. The floor of the view point is made of wood and that's VERY slippery. I had not my spike shoes on, so I could not go there. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-04-01. Also here there was snow and ice. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-04-01. Here was bare ground and I could go here. | ||
 | ||
| 2015-04-01. Rådhusparken was snowed over again after the latest snow. | ||
 | ||
| I walked back to the sores an looked around in the new store Utopia. It's nice there. You can sit a while and rest on benches. | ||
 | ||
| Ove took the pictures inside Utopia 2015-03-30 in the morning. | ||
 | ||
| The light and interior fittings are so pretty. | ||
 | ||
| Ooops! What's this bucket doing there? The glass roof was leaking on a place, and water was dripping in the bucket. But they repaired it immediately. | ||
 | ||
|
2015-04-01.
I bought these napkins in Utopia. Such wonderful words! :) I will make good food at Easter, and have these napkins on the table. | ||
