Spring in Leoben
We enjoyed two gorgeous days in Leoben. Mutti Theisl said she ordered the sun to shine and the trees to bloom especially for us. As you can see, Mother Nature and Mutti Theisl are in cahoots.
We walk through this park on our way from our Leoben lodgings (owned by Tony and Christa) to Mutti’s house.
Christa, a dear friend and neighbor of Mutti, invited us to enjoy a “morning sit” in her garden. When we arrived at about 10:30 she asked, “What would you like to drink – beer or vodka?” We chose vodka.
A "morning sit" and refreshments in Christa and Tony's blooming garden puts a spring-spring in your step.
Five giant cherry and two giant apple trees stand in the garden. A few years ago Tony was picking the best cherries at the very top of a tree when the ladder gave way and Tony fell several meters. Though he was badly hurt, Tony recovered, and thankfully the trees survived too...Christa threatened to cut them all down. The trees were saved by Tony's promise not to get on a ladder again.
Mutti sports her spring shoes as she prepares to bike into town. (She doesn't own a car.)
Enjoying ice cream and a gorgeous view along the Mur river.
