September 28, 2025,Tour auf Ilmradweg und Saaleradweg

On what was probably my last Sunday tour of the year, the route took me via Apolda to the Ilm River, then along the Ilm via Bad Sulza to Großheringen. From there, I returned to Jena through the Saale Valley. The weather was initially very foggy, later turning autumnally gray.

Good day,

Friday. 13 o'clock. The hammer fell. Didn't hit the foot.
So get out. The sun is shining.

Which tour could be planned today in heavenly weather?

Wasn't there something else on the agenda?

Paradise - kingdom of heaven - paradise

Good day,

there is no big story or words to waste.
Worked through Friday routinely.

True to the motto: “From Friday at one, everyone does their own thing,” I did exactly that.
I dropped the hammer.
I left unfinished work lying around.
I'm sure it'll still be there when I go back to work.
