Well almost. There was a concert performed last night by an Italian Pink Floyd tribute band called Seamus. Although it was raining heavily the day before the event, the sky was luckily clear during the concert. If the weather wasn’t good with us, the performance would be in a large tent here in Bohinjska Bistrica, which sucks badly when it comes to acoustics. So the concert itself was at a place we call »Pod Skalco« (could be translated as Under the Rock) right next to Lake Bohinj. Seamus band played for about two hours and a half and everyone from our team of five agrees that they were very very good. And if old Pink Floyd gurus like my father and his friend Toni say this you can safely believe it to be true. It was a lot of fun and great music for only 5€ of entrance fee. In fact I was quite surprised that there were not more people at the concert. Ah well, those not being there, including my sister, can be very sorry. They missed a lot of great music for little money.

Winter has really been boring this year. No snow at all and not even that cold. Definitely not what it should be like here in Bohinj at this time of the year. Really bad for business at our ski centres Vogel and Kobla. Until the day before yesterday, when it finally started snowing. Some real winter at last. I hope it keeps snowing for a longer time.
Here’s the view from our balcony

On a weather related note, we had quite a few power outages yesterday and today. A very long time since the last one. Because of this my Gentoo Linux powered home server was off-line several times for a few of minutes. When it went off-line for the first time it had a couple of hours more than 81 days of uptime. I’m quite sure this is its highest uptime. I guess I’ll have to buy myself an uninterrupted power supply (UPS) unit some day. Until that day comes, don’t be surprised if this blog isn’t accessible at some moments.
