Landing a photo to compare the times. The photo on the left was taken on February 19, 2024, and the one on the right was taken today, April 7, 2024. So what a few months makes. That means spring, my friends.
The perks of living close to a littoral

The perks of living in a city close to a littoral is that you don’t need a car to get there. The ocean is always near, and you can get some release if you feel hot. If you want to take a cruise to Stockholm, you can do that easily.
Sunflower from the past
In 2011, my late mother and I picked up sunflowers that were picked up from a field in my city for free. We had three of them, and this is one of them. It’s not called a sunflower for nothing. The photo is taken with Canon EOS 40 D.
Zombie clouds on the horizon
I was on a bike trip today (April 28) and stopped by a bridge. The clouds on the horizon look like zombie clouds. At least the feeling is.
Wonderment on snow
It’s spring, but we still got more snow. Ice cream kiosk is not really a wonderment this time of the year when you live in Finland, though. The weather is unpredictable here. Just when you think the snow won’t come back, the cold spell in spring gets here. But when the snow melts, the kiosk will open. Like it always does each year.
