December 25, 2023,Eene meene von wegen - is doch wieder Regen ☔️ Hex 🧙‍♀️ Hex

Trapper Joe with 🐕 and Frollein Regenscheu set off again...on the Hexen🧙‍♀️bankweg 🧙‍♂️
It seems to be rain-free for now 🌂... until it rains☔️....and stops again🌂before it starts again☔️...bewitched and sewn up. At least the gray sky briefly reveals a color... just briefly, as proof that there is something else that might come to light again at some point 😉
