Not what I wanted !

Postby Norway Joe » Mon Apr 12, 2021 2:12 am

After enjoying a few days with nice temperatures and all the snow had melted away I woke up to this today. Not what I wanted now. Summertires on the cars, boat is rubbed and polished and ready for the water. Everything looked good.

Seems patience is the word.Image

We had some of "those" morning surprises when we lived in the Rockies and I can relate.

The only soft white stuff I want is a small head on my beer in a frosty mug in 90° weather. :D

I'm with both K.am. and Boots.

Strange thing is: at the end of the autumn I always look forward to the winter and snow but in the spring I can't get rid of the snow fast enough.

Tourist: I bet it's beautiful during the Summer here in Norway, isn't it ?

Joe: Yes Mam, I just hope I don't have to work that Weekend !

Truth be known I feel the same way. At my age winters are cold and summers are hot. There are very few in-betweens lol

We call this our backyard. It's a small forest only 150 yards from our house. It's big enough to spend a day there. Lots of deer and some moose.

Also a lot of interesting historical events to explore. Many signs explaining what happened at different spots. Both from the WWII, our wars with Sweden and old tracks from the medieval time and more.

At the outskirts of the forest you have a great overview over one of the world's oldest airports. Established in 1912 and still in use. The airport was bombed by the Germans the 9th of April 1940. Acted as a hub and workshop for the Germans during the war. Due to this it was bombed by the Americans in 1943 and again by the British in 1944. The Americans dropped 838 high explosive bombs in their attack.
