@olgavita, How's it going?
This morning, my legs took me for a walk towards the beach "Beyond the Black Forest".
I've already been to this beach 2 times this year. The first time I brought my youngest daughter here, the second time I was with my son. And, of course, our dog Nora was with us. No such walk is complete without it.
Nora likes to run on the sand. In previous years, I went with her to a beach close to me, but this summer the water level in the river was high for a long time and after that the beach disappeared, the water carried the sand downstream. This is a common thing for our rivers, which have a lot of sand.
The beach is about 2 km away. Now there is a good road to it, the grass is withered, fallen and does not interfere with walking.
Beautiful weather, morning Sun, complete calm. All these are excellent indicators for creating a mirror. The water in the river is clean and transparent, it doesn't happen like this in summer. The water cooled down, the algae stopped growing and therefore the water became transparent.
The green paint was gone, the yellow and red ones also quickly flew away. The trees have turned gray, I don't take into account the "evergreen" pines.
I looked at the river and longing began to overcome me. I have never gone spinning on my river this year. Well, next year I will be constantly on the river. These are my thoughts and plans. But the years fly by... There are many desires, but time is getting short.
There are a lot of ATV tracks on the beach. It was they who paved the way to this place. It's good. In summer, the grass is above the waist, it makes it difficult to walk, and in the morning it is also damp from dew and fog. This October is a real gift.
During the walk, I walked about 4 km. It seems to me that Nora ran at least 2 times more than I did. She especially ran a lot on the beach.
I took this picture when she was running the third lap around me.
I have one unfinished business left- to bring my wife to the beach. The weather will be changing tomorrow. Rain and snow are forecast for Monday. I hope my wife will go for a walk with us tomorrow morning.
Thanks for reading...
