Escape from boredom

Upper from about two weeks ago, below from this morning.

On Sunday the 1’st Iver and I was out enjoying the snow. Two days after I went for a run and the conditions had completely changed, picture taken at the same locations as the one from the previous blog post showing the snow sledge at the bottom right.

Applying the final touch on the concrete floor before we can start to lay the parquet flooring. The concrete needed to be leveled, small job doing that – the problem was afterwards when I had to clean the tooling. Since all water faucets outside still was frozen I went down to the small stream (brook) and cleaned it there, just like Elin’s grandmother washed clothes back in the old days. Worked as a charm, tools and bucket all clean and nice now.

Yesterday me and Iver went out together, and in order for me to get some training and he to get some fun I found my backpack and attached the tow rope to the backpack and started running (ok, walking…).

Trying out old traditions, today extracts from the birch tree. Tasted like…water.

There are many ways to remove rust from metal, here are four of them using stuff from your kitchen. I will not be using any of them when removing rust from the roof of my tractor. Anyways, with the help from my neighbor the roof was lifted of earlier today. So now I have a Valmet 865s cabriolet…

Picture taken last Wednesday. The guys who leases our field is doing maintenance, they had to fix a leak in the field drainage. While doing that they made a ditch for us behind the barn as well.

We have had visitors on our field the past few weeks, several swans have landed there and spent the day.

Had to pull over and take a picture of the odometer

(I want a new car)
