OK thenIt is @atelier_ravnen
It is just one big mess of everything. Now you have been warned
Oh there's some lovely things on there. Will point my wife at it too, she makes all sorts of art, hats and things. Thank you.
She does, but for the past year or so, work has stopped her doing much as she's been away working so much. There'll be more coming in the next few months. She's https://www.instagram.com/ems_peer_norton/
Janne, right now I have 13 horses at home in addition to my pupils, and no employees, so I'm feeling a bit swamped right now :-o
I'm supposed to train 7 horses 5 days a week, in addition to feeding, cleaning, shoeing, surveying pregnant mare, preparing a new breeding season, and all the other non-horse related jobs here, haha!
May and June will be more relaxed (I hope, but I'm probably just delusional).
So shooting business is a bit neglected right now

That is a lot of horse!!
You know, you should start collecting the long hairs from the tails. Fantastic material to weave stuff from, like straps.
I wish your summer months get easier and more relaxing!
I'm counting on it! In June I'll have the only thing closely resembling vacation this year, even for just a few daysJune will be a good month for you...

You might be right! But climbing those peaks will probably having me sleeping like a baby for once, so I might actually feel refreshed when I get home
In Desert Storm I slept like a baby: woke up every couple of hours, swished for a bottle, and cried myself back to sleep.
You definitely needed an Anesthetic to fall asleep with all that sand in your trousers!
I do not like ants when I sleep outside.

Can't wait for the trip report!!
Pix and all 😉
You were in Desert Storm?
All these people in this forum with all these different lives... It's amazing!
"Bring a compass. It's awkward when you have to eat a friend."
Yes. I enlisted in 1976 and retired in 1997. I got to see a lot of the world while serving.
A small update from this corner of the earth
I´ve been baby sitting a German Shepherd for friends of mine, for 14 days. It was really nice to have a dog in the house again, and I got a hiking buddy just as enthusiastic in the woods as I am.
He´s one year old, and training to be a police dog, so I had free reins with environment- and search training. What a nose on this guy! I look forward to see how he develops in the future!

"Where´s the beavers?"

I´ve also got two new lambs in the freezer. I´ve gotten a really good price on one year olds, and find I enjoy the taste even more than the lambs born the same year.
I´m also considering getting a small herd myself, of the breed "Norsk Villsau", a very old and healthy breed. The meat is wonderful, and their skins are very popular.
Time is going to be decisive in the decision, but I hope I can manage

Early Easter celebration with my brothers
They needed handles for their cute little viking axes and halberds, purely for reenactment purposes, so we went out looking for Ash but ended up with Birch and Rowan.
And yes... I know I really should wear a full protection kit when handling a chainsaw, which I do when I´m cutting for more than 10 minutes or bigger/more difficult trees. So if anyone wants to point that out, I already know. I was just lazy!

Happy chickens patrolling the hood. I have three chickens brooding on eggs now, so I suspect we´ll have tiny yellow ones wandering around here soon.
