Looking back over my shoulder

My wonderful mom sent me these two pictures on e-mail. Yepp, it is me.

Great memories run through my head when I see them. These are shot where my grandparents lived, a 4 hours drive north of Trondheim. I used to go there every summer and fishing was one of my favorite activities.  

In the first pic, me and my dad are in a wooden boat on lake Salsvatnet. It is the second deepest lake in Norway and Europe with 482 meters as the deepest point.

I guess that we are going to pick cloudberries on this trip. I felt quite cool driving this boat with a 9.9 HK motor.

Looking at my hat I hear... Y M C A..... 

In this second shot I have been out on the fjord catching a cod. I remember it so well. Everything, from the fish swallowed the bait until my mom shot this photo. Some memories are stuck.

Oh yes I was proud.

Have some memorable days everyone.

By the lake

Would you believe it, I went swimming in this lake. Well, not today, but on a hot summer day in July. I think it was wonderful this afternoon as well.

I wish you all a nice week.

Due to some spam, I have to activate Word Verification on my blog. Sorry for the coincident.

Looking forward to winter

Outside it is 7^o Celsius and the rain is pouring down. The wind is tearing  leafs off the trees.

October and November are two long months with variable weather. Forecast for the next two weeks is miserable. I DON’T LIKE IT !

I want it like this picture. This frozen lake is called Leksdalsvatnet, just south of Steinkjer.

(I shot this with another camera 3 years ago)

Summer memories

It will be about 9 months until next time I see this here in my country. But meanwhile I hope for a wonderful autumn and winter and spring...  :-)
