Ridiculously profitable

“Latterlig lønnsomt”, the last book I have read. It’s about the importance of having fun at work or where ever you are spending time. Got the book back at Bertel O. Steen. You can read more at http://www.begeistring.no/ which by the way is not a funny webpage, the design sucks, but does it matter…just a bit

I made eggnog

Desperate for a snack in the evening, searching, we had nothing but eggs. Elin told me how to make eggnog, I made it. Elin loved it for one minute, then for the second she felt a bit sickness of it… I loved it, in lack of something else http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eggnog

Weekend at Vestreng

Here are some pictures from this weekend, showing what we have done there the past two days.

Yesterday I put an old heap of spruce branches on fire. I had also cut some grass a cople of weeks ago which was on top of the heap. By using some oil and cardboard I put the whole thing on fire. As the two following pictures show, there where a lot of smoke!

Same heap. For a short while I was thinking what the hell have I done!

Picture taken towards the neighbour at Sandjordet. They are going to cut down the huge maple any day now. It’s a bit sick, and since it the maple or the house, they prefer the house 🙂

There is a beaver in the small stream right close by. It has done a great deal of work making a dam, cutting down a lot of trees.

Today we tried to set the large pile of branches on fire. It did not catch fire in the start, after a while it seamed to have caught fire, but then again it just smoulderd. But what it lacked of flames it for sure compensated with smoke. On a bright and clear autumn day Vestreng was filled with smoke from our fire.

Smoking!

It was quite bad when we left 🙂
