Escape from boredom

Like two days ago, Roar did his stuff yesterday afternoon as well.

Picture taken on the 20’th of September, down by “Øya” where the kids at Løken primary school are spending time during their outdoor days. We took a trip down there together with Siri and my father. The field was flooded and while there my father saw a fish leaping out of the water in between the grain.

Health Service Executive (HSE) at home is highly overrated, living on the edge makes thing more fun

The extreme weather called Roar is making it rain cats and dogs up north, but here it makes the sky light up like this

Elin’s uncle Jørgen and his Volvo PV, the picture made me think of the song Old Man by Neil Young…

….Love lost, such a cost,
Give me things
that don’t get lost.
Like a coin that won’t get tossed
Rolling home to you…

The Volvo has not been tossed, and it is still rolling…

And here is another car that has not been tossed, the old truck that used to belong to Elin’s father, now to Elin’s uncle. He was sick today, so me and my father in-law had to drive it to Bjørkelangen to deliver grain at the mill

My son’s Porsche 918 Spyder, awsome!

Yesterday while driving by Løken I saw this combined harvester working on a field where it has been a flood. Driving from Hemnes I thought it was a fire at Løken, but it was not.

Two days ago, preparing for winter

And therefore I think I should stick with my old motorcycle and not spend money on a new and shiny one which I have to take really good care of.

A bit cumbersome this one, not to big, but next to our greenhouse not possible to get close to with the tractor without destroying either the lawn or one or more trees or all.

So I collected all tow straps I could find, then dug a bit around the stumb and pulled. Had to give it two tries before it had to give up.
