17-IV-1996.

Seeing how the birch in the back still has no leaves, this was probably shot at least ten days earlier.

The legendary pic of Lena. She just loved the way her bottle and pacifier smelled, didn't really keep them around for any other reason. This is where she's enjoying it to the fullest - both sources of smell under her nose, legs on the table, shades...

The table was improvised, I just put together a few planks and connected them with a couple of thinner planks, and laid them on two pairs of siporeks blocks. The garage behind the farther birch belongs to Juliška, and the arced terrace too (whose roof will fall one day, because it stuck to the wall by mere fricion). The sheds to the left belong to that mason who had a flying pekineser dog.

Our house is, of course, unfinished, which is why the concrete mixer is always at hand. Unusable quite, though, because its engine just wouldn't run. Took it to majstor Saša, or to some other guys, who mostly did nothing, we just stopped using it. When I needed to put some concrete somewhere, as a rule it was something small, which I'd mix by hand in the wheelbarrow. A staircase down the hill from the terrace, or at the main door, or to the basement. Couldn't do more than one step a day, as each step had to lean on the previous one anyway.
