A Nordic Summer....

[Labrador]

November's here, the weather's closing in & I thought I'd share a few images from our trips to our Fritidshus in Halsingland, Sweden.
Not much bushy stuff this time as there have been a few jobs to do along with a lot of enjoying peace & quiet (I'd forgotten what that is).

Here's one of the regular visitors to the hay meadow directly behind our cabin.
I have spent some time out in the forest with Rolo

& spent time on the water, both in my canoe

& flyfishing from a float tube

I've taken Mrs Labrador to Jarvzoo where we saw these youngsters frolicking in the sun

And we've cooked some great meals over an open fire in the garden.

The tripod was made for me by Launditch1 at his forge in North Norfolk. I'd asked him to add a decorative twist to the legs & to make a matching poker as well. It proved to be one of the best things we took out to Sweden, fantastic in both form & function. If anyone's thinking about a campfire tripod I can only suggest that you get in touch with him, you'll not be disappointed! :You_Rock_
(I have no connection other than being a very happy customer)

Looks like a nice summer! Never been to that part of Sweden.
Is your cabin "åretrunt" or strictly May - Oct only?

Hi Bill,
Mama bear was asleep in the sun!

Hi David,
if you mean is it year round, the answer is yes (even got heated water pipes).

For anyone thinking of visiting Halsingland, the new "Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" film with Daniel Craig was filmed about 40 minutes drive south of our cabin!

Thanks for looking,
Martin
