Again the weather forecast was pretty accurate, no rain today, some wind, but overall a pretty nice day. Our goal was the Koelnbreinsperre dam at the end of the Malta Hochalmstrasse. But it wouldn’t be a family trip when it wouldn’t be full of troubles. Around Spittal, a warning light in the car keeped flashing [...]

Family Trip
Frist, a longer family trip was planned today, but because of some pretty bad weather forecast, it got shortend to a visit to my grandpa, partly also to fix some skype problems on her laptop (Spoilter: the micro stand had an on/off switch). We went there with sunshine, around 10 am and weather was realy [...]
More Lawn Wars
After we started with the lawn on Monday, today was the day to finish the job. LAst time we had problems with the big lawn mower, mostly a flat battery and the transmission system for the front blades was messed up. With the battery charged and the belts adjusted right (an remove one pulley that [...]
More working
Again, most of the day was working on the insulation again. We had to fill the remaing part of th eroof, but we run out of the insulation material before we finished the roof, so it as an early day off. Still, i had some stuff to work on, a wire on the car that [...]
Working Man
No time to play with my new Nikon gear today, my aunt called me to help them there with insulating the new attic rooms. Its easier when you dont have to drag the ladder with you all the time. Just wish that thing wouldnt be so itchy. Only downside, none of my new gear, neither [...]
Flea Market Training
There is a nice “small” flea market on the parking log of the the big “Metro” – supermarket in the east end of Klagenfurt, not as big as the city or the viktring 0ne, but for here fairly big. Sadly, I had not much luck, besides a not fully working Zenit, ther ewas nothing realy [...]
Another Ski Day
With a good forecast and time, we went for another ski day, this time heading to the the Koralpe in the northeast of carinthia. When we got there, things looked pretty nice, blue sky, hardly any people on the slopes and the slopes itself in great shape. The problem started when we where going up, [...]
Attic Cleaning
It was’t exactly the Sunday I had in mind today, but with the “great” weather today, its at least not a lost day. Due some extra subventions you get now when you renovate your house to make it more eco-friendly, not only friends but also my uncle decided to do a long overdue renovation on [...]
Attic Raid
Ah, another of those plesant boring days. Weather was nothing special, all friends ocupied, so the next best thing to do was to follow my uncles “invitation” and help him on cleaning up the attic of the farm house, since they were going to build a new roof there this year. I was hoping that [...]
First Day in the new Year
Walking across the village where my aunt has the farm after new years eve is like walking across a ghost town, noone was out, and you could hardly hear a noise at all, most were recovering from party (and drinking) last nigh. After a healthy breakfast, we went on our way home, with a short [...]
