Irresponsible and childish parents

Initially I thought that some children had no better ideas than to burn firework in the night of August 3th. As it was raining on August 1st they could not go out and burn their fireworks at the usual national birthday time. On August 1st it is possible for people with animals to prepare or to o away to a quite place. This time it turned out to be very dangerous as my wife was just on the way with her horses which panicked. It was very sad to see that it were not the children but their irresponsible parents which organized the event. They didn't even stop after four people had complained and explained them how dangerous their behavior can be.

Here is a good guide for all who are not aware of this. Please note that the time in there are not directly applicable to Switzerland - here the calm period of the night starts at 22:00.

Before the storm

Yesterday was the hottest day this year followed by what was in some parts of the country quite a heavy thunderstorm. In Huggenberg we just saw clouds in the sky.

Snow this Thursday followed by a sunny good Friday

It too a few minutes on Thurday to cover everything with snow again.

Already in the evening the sun came back anbd was then also shining more or less the whole Good Friday.
