Description Yesterday the morning light tempted me so much that for the first time I went to the grounds of the country-house Einde Gooi again. On my bike! It is just 2 miles away, and that was just the limit! But the light was worth it, I find.

Taken on the grounds of the country-house Einde Gooi near Hilversum/The Netherlands.

If I had to characterize your pictures, I would probably say "smell". You so often capture scenery close to my heart (like this one), so I can smell the mud, leaves and humid, fresh, cold air... because I have been to similar woods.
It's beautiful.

Wat goed dat we toen zo veel regen hebben gehad! Met al de droogte van de laatste twee maanden die maar niet op wil houden.

Het zou de komende dagen gaan regenen. Hoop dat dat 's nachts is! Onze tuin wordt inderdaad ook al behoorlijk droog.

Some days it's hard I know...that's when we withdraw into our deepest places and heal. Your inspiration is a light that you follow.

I do not find it on each day either. Some days, especially on some mornings I have to struggle hard for it. But the good thing which I know by now is that it always comes back!

I guess we learn these things with experience over many years of trial and error...at least thats what I've observed.

It is still the end of February, so we do need some patience, I am afraid. But at least it is already three weeks ago that I left the hospital and I am feeling a lot stronger again.

I am afraid that the weather has changed by now again, another little touch of frost has driven the spring-like air away. But it shall come back!
