3 for the Blog

Just the two of us! Alone at a deserted pond. (come to think of it: "deserted" and "pond" seem to be a contradiction of terms.) ... anyway, there isn't another soul about. So we cannot catch the "Virus!"
For an hour we just sit on a lone bench, watching these ducks.



Four Mergansers, 2 male, 2 female
peacefully floating side by side.
Can we follow their example?


Then we head for the hills. 
Upwards an onward on a single track gravel road.
One quick shot of a Village Church with the snow-tipped "Petzen" in the background.


We pass an obviously abandoned house.
The balcony just catches the afternoon rays of the Sun.
All the windows are broken.
It fills me with a contemplative sadness.
I imagine that many years ago, a young "just married" couple
proudly and happily took possession 
of their "just completed" home.
Everything was new and inside, the home smelled new. 
Their Love was new.
The House was new.
Now the House is old and dekrepit.
Where are they?
