That’s the last picture on my SD card in February. It’s an sign from WWII and the equivalent of English posters of the time: “Careless talk costs lives” or “Loose lips sink ships”. We’d been on a run for Leap Year with some friends (the last one we did four years ago, wouldn’t you know?) and were caught in a thunderstorm.

Clouds over hills and dales –

Clouds over the empty festival grounds which are home to the world largest beer festival once a year, the Münchner Oktoberfest.

And one big thick cloud and not nothing else.

A host of clouds behind a silhouette of trees.

And again stretching over hills

offering a peephole into the sky.

The first day of school can be tough. A bright t-shirt as well as the “sugar cone” for the first day may help.

Maybe not. But it’s better than wearing dull clothes from the outset.
