THE DONKEY

There are two donkeys in Herstelle that we visit often.
A grey one and a black one.
In the morning I started in the garden, down at the entrance, removing thick layers of dead leaves, and tidying up, gives a much nicer view of the snowdrops and crocuses. Cutting shrubs that tend to block the steps a bit. The weather made this job a pleasant one.
Then we had a nice conversation with Mischa on the phone. She had been ill last week, due to a virus. But good to hear that she feels good again.
After lunch we drove to Herstelle, first we greeted the donkeys and sat on a bench enjoying the view of the river Weser.
Then we drove on to the Abbey on the hill, and started our walk there.
Quiet paths, silence around us, a view from above upon Wuergassen and the Weser.
Some peaceful hours.
