Sellise pildiga tuleb veel harjuda. Tali saabus seekord siis taliharjaks, mil pool talve juba läbi võiks saada. Uued ajad, uued kombed. Keegi ei vaata, et pool loomasööta veel küünis oleks... Nii see ilmgi... teeb, mis tahab.


Side notes: Winter's peak

Today is winter's peak day in Estonia (by our folk calendar), which means that half of the winter should be over and half ahead. It also meant to our ancestors that half of the cattle feed was supposed to be remaining to that date.

This year however, that folk calendar day is difficult to associate to real winter peak as winter arrived only just on past Sunday, when temperatures dropped to minus side and it started to snow. We will see where the real peak falls this year!
