Vienna Images

The images to our most recent trip to Vienna can be found here  https://lonemtnhomestead.blogspot.com/

We have just discovered that the Albertina will be having another very tempting art exhibit next autumn.  They will show the drawings and watercolours of Durer!  These very rarely go on display, only about every 15-20 years.  We saw some in Spain many decades ago, at El Escorial, and still have fond memories.  However, as much I would love to return to Vienna next autumn, things are shaping up for our long-postponed astronomy visit to New Mexico in October.  We will only have our SUV until December, so it's now or never....

The Ides of January have arrived.  We are having seasonal temps, which means cold but quite bearable, when the wind isn't howling.  We found a few more dandelions today on our bright and sunny walk.  However, this weekend we are to receive a true winter blast of cold air.  Also, another Saturday storm has its sights on our area.  We dodged last week's biggie, and we have a chance of being missed by the next one, too.  If only!  With January half over, we are nearly there....

We finally caught up with Randy G. today, enjoying some lunch with him at a small Windsor cafe.  We have all been very busy, but it's almost ridiculous that we haven't spent time with him since he briefly stopped by the house in November.
