rainy days

sometimes it is not raining!
 typical homes in this area

some of the many ducks swimming along the river nearby

Daniel by the Hegi horse barn - they drive them into Winterthur for tourist rides

Joya's famous cherry torte - yum!

Daniel waiting at the front door in the rain - I had the key
Here is the latest installment of Hegi life....we have been adventuring into town and to the market in the rain and sometimes in between storms. Our sunset walk last night was under a lovely rainbow! It seems tonight may be the same...at least it stopped raining, and the sunsets have been spectacular at times! This  unusual weather has been challenging but we do our best to keep ourselves occupied with cooking/eating/walking....could be worse ;)
Daniel is steadfast in his work and feeling well considering he has been through a lot. Killing off tumors is dirty business and he is pushing through it! I try to work and have had some real success with illustrations for the revision of our book, but it is difficult for me to get motivated. Perhaps it doesn't matter - time is different for us here.
Tomorrow we are to be picked up by our new friend, Andy, and taken for a tour of the area enroute a visit to his home/family outside of  Zurich. We are looking forward to growing a relationship and seeing new places.
Thanks to you all for your loving support....it helps so much. this life journey is quite different from vacation trips we have taken in the past - always the unknown ahead of us.
I want to dedicate this blog to my dear sister, Marie, who passed away 10 days ago. May her light continue to shine as she follows a new pathway, and may she be joined by loved ones who have gone before - to help her along her way. My memories, prayers and love follow along....ciao for now, Joya
