Just a few photos from today’s walk in the area of Baden-Württemberg, in which I am currently house-sitting.
Today was my weekly “secular Shabbat walk”, the day chosen not because it was the last day of the year, but for the warm and sunny weather. But I am happy I have installed this routine of at least one internet- and work-free day, to be spent in nature. – If you are still thinking about a New Year’s resolution, that might be a good idea.

Enjoy! I lived in Flein for a while, many years ago now. Beautiful part of the world, friendly people back then.
Oh, that is really close to where I am staying! (Oberstenfeld)
Today’s photos are from Beilstein, Löwenstein and Breitenauer See.

Thank you very much, and there will definitely be more stories in 2022!
Stunning photos! Thank you for sharing them. We had another cloudy, rainy, cold (for SoCal) day today and a virtual tour through your pictures is always a nice treat, especially appreciated when I can’t see my own sunset.
I make the same resolution every year, and it’s easy to keep. I resolve to be kind, and laugh as often as possible. Also to learn new things, even simple trivia things.
Happy New Year!
That’s a very good resolution indeed!
The weather in the south of Germany was almost as people would imagine Southern California, I guess. Including the vineyards.
(Which of course means that we are doomed, climatically, because that ain’t normal. We are supposed to be growing potatoes, not grapes.)
I did some research and I don’t think the part about the rain can possibly be true:

Absolutely beautiful. Thank you for sharing and happy new year.
Thank you very much, it was a beautiful day indeed.
All the best for you in 2022 as well!
Sounds like a good resolution. Best wishes for 2022 Andreas
All the best to you, as well, and many happy walks and trips throughout Belgium!
What is this internet free day you speak of?
I try to keep one day of the week completely internet and phone free:
Preferably, I combine it with a long walk in nature. But sometimes, I just go to the library all day without taking any gadgets.
It’s amazing how much I get done on such days.
