Die "kind" in die familie!/ The "child" in the family!
Ja, wat 'n tragedie. 'n Hele bladsy gespandeer op 'n hond!
Die baie sneeu-foto's mag dalk die indruk gee dat ons baie sneeu kry; dis nie regtig waar nie. Daar het die afgelope winter (2001/2002) net drie keer genoeg sneeu geval om langer as 'n dag te bly lę, maar die węreld word getransformeer deur die sneeu: skielik is die "peat road" droog genoeg om op te stap; die heuwels pragtig in 'n wit gewaad; die lug droog en vars; die lig intens en skerp. En Griet is die baldadigheid self.
Yes, how sad indeed. A whole page dedicated to a dog, and a bitch at that!
All the photos of Griet in snow may mistakenly give the impression that we get a lot of snow. This past winter we've had snow only trice that stayed for more than a day. The world however, is transformed by it: the air fresh & cripsy; the light intensified; the hills pretty in their maiden dresses; the peat road no longer a bog; but dry enough to go for walk without "wellies". And Griet -- irresistibly playful.
Look, Ma, I can sit!/Griet op haar bas.
My own bed/My eie bed
What's this?/Wat's die?
Sleeping Beauty/Die Slapende Skone
I like my boss!/ Sit my neer!
Griet playing with snow/ Griet aan't sneeu jaag
Do you get enough of the white stuff?
Look how much I've grown!
