Just another ten days or so and we’ll be setting off for Portugal. The realisation that our time in Dalfsen is drawing to a close has gradually sunk in. The last frost and snow in winter, the pale green of the beech trees one last time this spring, and now grumbling for the final time about the cold May rains. And about house prices. They meant we couldn’t find a new home here and stay a little longer with the trees, the Vecht river and this very window.
Without going outside, you may know
the whole world.
Without looking through the window,
you may see the ways of heaven.
The farther you go,
the less you know.
Tao Te Ching 47
