Short report from Summer House south of Oslo

e returned from Turkey last Monday afternoon. (More reports will come).  But I thought Family and blogger friends should see how it is here at 60 degrees North right now:

Flowers

Green Pepper

Rosa and Felicia stays on the Roof before Dinner-Time.

Niklas fixed the Stair in a very short Time. He is after all a profesionall.

Sebastian as well on the Roof

We are all here very fans of Tour de France. Every afternoon local time, we follows  the Norwegian TV2. They really have proffessional comentators. And still a Norwegian are in lead for Maillot Verte: Thor Hushovd.

Anna and Sölvi did play China Checkar. Papa had to be a part of the Game Twice. We played with two colours each.  The Results?Papa won twice. Tried his best to avoid the fact, but in vain…

Can you imagine how steep it is?

Tomatoes

Maria’s boat

Sebastian loves to sleep here..

Niklas 

The best of all:
Wild Rasberries. Wooow.


This is all from the Summer House right now.
Papa will bring you soon back to Turkey and more adventures….
Hope you enjoyed a moment of Summer Life here in Norway.
See you soon?

Papa and Anna and two Cats have moved to Summer Home

 
At last we have moved to our Summer Home, at least 3 weeks later than normal. One reason is the cold Spring, but the main reason is the missing of Stompa. Old fashioned boards has been posted in the Neigbourhood, on relevant Intersites and in the Local Paper.
 
No response so far, where are you?

Well, now we had no choice, we had to move. Felicia (above)  and Rosa have told us very clearly. And we also realized the Summer Garden need treatment and the Platform and houses as well.
My regular readers do know Papa is crazy about Flowers. Hence he was quick to bring up food, beverages, linen etc, even his PC and wireless modem before driving to his favourite Green House.

Papa returned after spending Nok 1227,- USD 200,-. € 150,-.
And he even met his Childhood Friend and his Woman in the Green House.
But how is the Garden after a long Winter with heavy Snowfalls?
We did check the Herbs. Scroll over the Photos if you do not know their names. After all they have all survived the Winter up here at 60 degrees North.
There were much more to inspect. The Grapes are late this year. The Wild Strawberries seems to be as normal. Lilly of the Valley is later than normal, as well with the Violas.
What about the Garden and Berries?
Well, we realize there will be a lot of work to do.  That’s why we move to our Summer House. To to anything else than our regular  jobs. Here you see Lions Dent, a lonley Tulip (the Deers love them and when we are not there…) The houses needs new painting and the Berries needs to be cared for. And the Platform must be cleaned.  After all, we have plenty of time to fix what’s needed with pleasure.  As long as we have Water and Electricity (Fridge, Freezeer, Shower, WC, Washing Machine and a Cooker besides good beds., flowers and Cats and fresh air and  a wonderful view
I really hope my Internet-connection will be stable during our Summer Months. It’s important for me to read your posts and also to comment. In some weeks time I will have more time to comment than I have had the chance to do the past Months.
For those of my readers that know what Pentecost is, have a happy Holyday.

It's been an unusual Summer. Cold, then very very hot and then very unstable and wet and chilly. Our Garden is the best proof of out of line.
After all, we did harvest this Sunny Sunday.
