The weather is lovely today, it's like summer has returned!
Except that it cools off much more during the nights now.
I'm writing to you from the past again, because Steemit was down yesterday!
We had a wonderful summer already. When we moved into our new home, we had about a whole month of sun and warmth. There was no rain whatsoever. Rules were even put into place to prevent the country from being too low on water. That's the first time I'd heard of that here in the Netherlands.
Sure, with an eye on global warming, that's not necessarily a good thing, however it was a pretty nice change from the usual Dutch weather with more rain than you would prefer during summer.
It wasn't nice for the garden though, I'll have to admit. Grass turned brown after a few weeks and it is still recovering now, after plenty of rain has yet again visited us these last couple of weeks. But hey, I didn't have to mow it for weeks, which was great!
Weather turned colder these last few weeks though, so I spent less time outside. More rain came and the sun went into hiding from time to time, slowly switching to autumn.
Until a couple of days ago! The weather decided to give us a couple of days of sunny, dry after summer. So again, I get to air out the house all day and warm up our home without using central heating.
By the way, I am very happy with central heating. We lived for a year without it in a wooden cabin with a woodstove to heat up the place. That meant temperatures close to freezing point inside in the morning. Bah! So happy that's behind us now.
Anyway, what was the point of this post again? Oh, right, I'm happy for the good weather! As a bonus, hubby took two days off work, so he has a long weekend now. We enjoyed the weather at the amusement park yesterday.
We went into one ride and played Pokemon Go the rest of the time...

We'll take it easy today and tomorrow and I'm sure with the free time, combined with the lovely weather, hubby will be fully recharged when he starts work again on wednesday!
Hope you're all enjoying lovely weather too!
