GOLD


For the first time in my blog-life, I'm will have the same photo on my three different blogs, but not the same words.  It's just that this icehockey-team has done something very special. The last time it happened was 35 years ago! So the whole town has really been longing for the gold medal so long, especially as this was the third time in three years that we reached the final. But two silver medals finally changed to GOLD!

This Friday night was magic, the city was congratulating the team and about 10 000 people came to the square (the town has about 30 000 inhabitants). We were all singing, shouting and jumping together with the team.

Much going on


There's much going on right now in my life, but I'm enjoying it all so I don't complain. It's just that I've been missing my writing and reading through this blog, but I hope to catch up a bit this weekend.

The new blog is something I started some weeks ago when we spent some time in the village where we have our lakehouse. Many villages in Sweden are getting smaller all the time as there are no jobs and the younger moves to the cities. There are people who are struggling and try to start companies for tourist as we have a wonderful nature for fishing and hikes. With the blog I hope that I can give my picture of the village, but I will also write about issues that I hope to be interesting for those who live there or spend their weekends and holidays there like we love to do.
