Photos from the other side of Andalucia

Just two early morning photos that my photographer, mr. Tripod insisted on taking.

The first is from my roof terrase. Its soooo Andalucian with all these red brick walls where noone or very few will see them.

Second is where Doggy and I go to fart. Its some 30 meters from my house. In the good old days we could open the gate and fart on the other side, but then the owner of the land decided to weld the gate. He NEVER goes there, but I think he did so in order to piss off a neighbour, so now Nimbus and I just go there and look and today it looked like this.

Well Anders, I noticed in the first picture a tree with green leaves and oranges, but in the second picture (Where you and Nimbus fart)a kind of lifeless tree - No green leaves or nothin'- Could it be that you and Nimbus need to change your diets?

Just kidding, I really hate when access is cut off for no good reason.

Cheers,
Dave

Many trees are green here year round, but fig (spell) trees are without leaves for some month.
Here in Huelva, its very lush compared to the rest of Andalucia.
The most stupid thing about the gate is that the land piece is totally open from the country side and you can go in there like you want. First he put a big lock on the gate, then my neighbour broke it with a big hammer and next day the gate was welded. But besides that, its a quiet place.

I would fart right on that guys fence. You could make a sling shot with a special launch pouch and shoot Nimbus' poop right over the gate into the former open space. That way it will not go fallow and stay fertilized.

You dont get it. The owner doesnt care at all about that piece of land. He´s never there. He just needed to weld the gate for some reason that I dont know. Its been almost 2 years like that, so I´ve gotten used to it.

That looks a lot like Portugal. In the south we even have the traditional moorish chimneys, they look really cool

Flinging dog poop might be theraputic. You can pretend the land owner cares.

I still don't get why they couldn't have planted orange trees with oranges that are, well, you know...edible.

My girlfriend took to making candy out of the rind. That was pretty edible, actually, but people would stop and stare at this woman walking around Sevilha picking oranges. Even her landlord thought she was nuts, until he tasted the candy and wanted more.
