The legend of wroclaw dwarfs

 

Story says that the gnomes have lived in Wrocław since the beginning,

and their history is passed down from generation to generation.

The first gnome to appear in the settlement was the well-known Papa Dwarf.

He, along with his fellows, helped the first Wroclaw residents in their daily activities.

The gnomes repaired everyday objects, worked in the fields, patched holes in people’s clothes,

and helped raise children. In return, they received safety and shelter.

Since then, they are considered as the town’s protective spirits.

In the legends, it is said that where the gnomes live, prosperity

and order reign. The symbiosis of people and Wrocław gnomes coexist to this day,

and the little statues scattered throughout the city are here to remind you of it.

I received a parcel at the end of last year, a box full of bulbs, I don't know where they came from but as no one has claimed them I decided to plant them in. There are these lovely dwarf Irises, purple crocus and one more that hasn't come out yet.

I noticed a couple coming toward me as I started on a hike in Great Basin National Park. It struck me how tiny the people were in comparison to the towering Wheeler Peak. The grandeur that nature gives us is overwhelming and reminds us of our place on the planet!

 

Great Basin National Park is located in eastern Nevada close to the Utah border. The park includes most of the South Snake mountains.
