Church without tower
Scheemda has churches, towers, towers without churches, churches without towers. Complicated business, godwise.

Reitdiephaven in the morning
The morning sun sheds quite a lot of light in my lens obfuscating much of the harbour.

And then suddenly it started snowing.
Just when we thought the winter was behind us. Wet snow stormed.
Luckily I was wearing my Icelandic wintercoat. The warmest, windstopperist, best I ever had.
Farm with blue sky and clouds
It was cold outside but the sun already has some strength. Oh no, winter has just begun. We still have January and February to live through.
The Dorkwerd bridge
View from the Dorkwerd bridge over the van Starkenborghkanaal which has a covering of large ice sheets.
Yet another Dorkwerd picture
Yes, the new house means new walking routines. Dorkwerd is on the trail now.

Sheep out in the field
In the field next to the spooky farm (where I once saw the female farmer with a scythe over her shoulder walk in the twilight) there were some sheep grazing.
Landscape with a bit of snow
The snow is melting fast but in the shadowier parts there is still some snow and ice, frozen land.
Tool left behind
In the last remains of the once large section of meadows on the university site a farming tool was left along the barbed wire.
