I was writing tests when I looked at my watch and saw: half past two. Okay, let's quickly get them finished. The next time I had a look at the clock it read 14:50. They were far from finished. A quick "TODO" put into the code for Monday to see where to continue, pushing a WIP commit to prevent data loss, submitting the time tracking and off I went to lace my boots in order to meet my mate who was already waiting a minute for me.
Today was 14°C, the jacket mainly open, scarf moved from around the neck into the pocket right after five minutes. I carried my beanie and gloves just in case, however, they remained in the pockets. When we started it was a bit windy, maybe 30km/h gusts. We reached the summit of our backyard mountain after about 55 minutes, which is on the quicker side, especially since we didn't take the most direct route possible. That also meant we successfully missed the ear-shattering ringing of the curch bells at the top-most part of the village. The couple last times we weren't that lucky and got hit by their deafening sound.
The higher we went, the more stormy it got. With the heavy gusts (I reckon at least 50km/h) it was nearly impossible to take any photos. I just got shaken around. But it was very cool, though. Just not to take pictures. I love wind.

Nearly nobody else was out, so we had all the lovely storm for ourselves. We also noticed, that they put up new signs at the summits. It's now getting a bit overcrowded with signs since they also don't remove the old ones. They just add new ones. Mostly same the same. Seven more pictures.
@lyse nice click, mate! Seven is very good as well. I love wind too. I have been on winds you can't stand, you are moved if you do. Even laying low you feel the drag, that strong. I have, though, seeing with own eyes its destructive force. I have seeing a roof of a house come off, almost fully. It can be horrifying.
@david Ta! Yeah, standing at the cliff edge earlier on was quite brutal. Luckily, with the headwind the chances of getting thrown off were pretty much non-existent. I also tried to duck down, to reduce my windage, but no luck, the gusts still shook me like crazy.
@lyse Very nice clicks mate 👌 Loce 2, 3 and 4 I think that's looking out over the same place as I've seen before right? 🤔 The last time I saw one of these you showed us a shot that looked like rays from heaven 😂

@prologic Thanks, yes, I featured that mountain range a loooot of times now. :-) Like most other pictures, too. ;-)
@lyse it's a very nice mountain range 😆

@lyse 07 is great! The rock in the front left really makes it more interesting.
One thing: It could use a slight rotation. 😅 And that makes me wonder: Couldn’t cameras show a little level indicator? 🤔 I know how hard it is to take photos that are not skewed (is the the right word?) and such an indicator might help.

@movq Thanks, yes! You are right. I was wondering whether I should rotate it, but I thought, that it's level enough, since the cliff on the left will obscure the references for vertical and horizontal lines and thus hide it anyways. But I was clearly wrong. Will try to be more careful in the future. :-)
Unfortunately, my camera lacks such a level indicator. But I truely wish it had one. Maybe I have to mount a small spirit level on top of it.
