When I passed the dirt bike park I saw a mum and dad each standing on top of the hills and their eyes glued onto their phones. Their young child could do whatever it wanted to. What a super-weird scene.
Coincidentally, I caught up with a mate in the forest and we went 30-45 minutes together before he parted way to head home. I continued up the local mountain and then came across a section where they had limed the forest with a blower on a Unimog. All this lime stickin on the trees looks quite strange. I'd love to see this liming action live. Probably loud as hell, but I imagine it to be a great spectacle with all this power of the blower. The other week they already limed other parts of the forest with a helicopter.
The heat and drought make for an early autumn here. Lots of leaves are already on the ground. I caught a tick crawling up leg and ground it between my rocks I carry for such occasions in my pocket. I still need to get myself a lighter, just to be extra sure. Yes I wanted to do that for several months now.
Sunset
The sunset was terrific to watch from the summit. On the way home a bunch of bats circled around me for quite some time, which was really beautiful. It was pitch-black when I finally unlocked the door.
@lyse yeah I find it very strange the way peoples habits of changed over the decades where you see people basically plastered on the smart phones.

@lyse Nice sunrise! I didn't really get what the truck was doing?

@prologic Which truck do you mean? The one in 11.jpg was just driving down the road and in this photo a car is overtaking it. Remember, right lane traffic over here. :-)
The linked photos over at bodenkalk.at show the forest liming via a truck from the ground. Here they blow magnesium calcium carbonate (or something like that, I'm no chemist) into acid woods to raise the pH level. Healthy mineral soil should have at least 4.5 on the pH scale. What the heck, I somehow don't find any English sources about forest liming. There's just a German wikipedia article about it and tons of other German articles and research papers. I can't believe that this is only a German thing.
@lyse that's what I was asking about, the forest liming. I've never ever heard of this thing before 😳
