Strong women

Hi Everybody!

We have been enjoying some slightly cooler weather here, which is great, and we even got a few drops of rain in the night, but we badly need some real rain, the earth is much too dry.
I saw this old journal spread in one of my A3 journals and decided to re-show it, as it is one I like and with a good message. I remember making those little paper dolls, and tucked into the journal was an envelope with more pieces to make dolls,  which I then put together:

These are the ones I assembled from the bits I had forgotten:

I am linking to Paint Party Friday, hosted by Eva and Kristin

and to Soma's wandering camera

I spent a lot of time roaming through the fields and along the Rhine this week, the fields are buzzing with bees and some less lovely insects which like to sting and bite:

The farmers have been busy harvesting the barley and rye:

It's always a feast for the crows and gulls:

I see the rabbits every morning when I go out, but mostly they are gone before I get my camera out - this time I caught them running:

Lots of  school groups have been out and about enjoying walks and picnics:

Blue skies above the castle ruins:

Another crow:

This butterfly was tiny, less than an inch across:

It is really refreshing to wander though the fields and enjoy nature:

Have a great day, take care,

and thanks a lot for coming by!
