It is not over until it is over...


The header relates to the picture above. We had kind of an early spring in March, then the weather turned cold again in the beginning of April. After some days of promising weather it started to snow again the day before yesterday and yesterday it was still snowing when I came home from work as you can see in the picture above. The winter is not over yet it seems.

Pete as a decoration piece


It seems that Ingela and I have differing views of how to use Pete Townshends album "All the Best Cowboys Have Chinese Eyes"...:)

It all started last Sunday when Lukas and I went to the yearly vinyl record fair in Vasa. I was browsing through a big box of unsorted albums, 3 EUR each, when I bumped into this album in a very good condition, removing the record out of the inner sleeve I couldn't find any scratches whatsoever. To me it seemed unused. 
So I immediately bought it of course. This bargain spurred my thoughts onward to start searching for "White City" but I spent another 1 1/2 hours searching for that one without luck.
When I came home and showed the record to Ingela she immediately snatched it out of my hands, thanked me for this nice piece of decoration and installed on a shelf in her office!
Well, I must admit that it looks very good there alongside withe the quotation from "Baba O'Riley".
The inner sleeve containing the record is though stored in my collection of vinyls. :)



In the meantime we have got a lot more of this bloody white stuff we love so much... Not!
Well it makes the surroundings brighter and is rather decorative as you see. But when you have to clean your driveway repeatedly and it makes your biking rough you get tired of the stuff.
The picture is shot across the street from our kitchen window last Sunday.
And the temperature plunged down to -23 C again today.


The tealights are keeping us warm and cosy though!

Winter update

Hello everybody from this frozen over hell called Finland. Blogger Val asked me regarding my last put if it has got any better now, the answer is no.
Its is worse...
Since Sunday we have got som 10 inches of snow combined with a hard northern wind yesterday and today that made the snow pile up, up to my eyebrows in places as you can see from the picture of our backyard this evening:

My car trailer parked alongside our woodshed is somewere inside the pile of snow below:
The temperature today is only a moderate -6 C but tomorrow it will drop down to -15 C again.
Aaargghhh!

I'm not dreaming of a Christmas this white...



The picture is from a webcam overlooking a traffic circle here. The snow is pouring down at 11:35 am. And more is to come the next days.
