A time for every purpose under heaven
@brittarnhild As I sat there, icefishing, my only companions the snow, the frozen lake, the sun, the air, the silence, I knew that time is NOW to give Britt-Arnhild´s House in the Woods a break. Short or long? I don´t know yet. But the break will end, eventually, and the door will again open...
Hope that you have a good break, something we have to do now and again. We all deserve one/. Look forward to new and wonderful things to come. ♥

A surprise on the way to Charleston
@brittarnhild I came out of the train and the first thing I saw was Fran smiling, waving. I smiled and waved back of course, and soon we could hug each other. Blogging friends meeting. "Have you ever heard of Berwick church?" Fran asked as we sat in her car. I hesitated, "No........I don´t thi...

Oh I do feel for places that Starbucks invade ,, why do they have to do this. Just continue to support the individual coffee shops you have ,, they need all the support they can get now ,, I would if I lived there.

Café con leche
@brittarnhild The year is 1912. Antoni Gaudí has just finished the magic house which is today known as La Pedrera, (The Stone Quarry), and before giving the key to the Milá family, he has invited me in for a cup of café con leche. Over the coffee Gaudí talks. Words create images in my mind. ...

Around town
@brittarnhild Walking around with a camera is like walking around with an extra eye, an eye which sees the unexpected, the hidden spots, the gems which are there somewhere. For a week now we have been walking around, my camera and I. Well, actually we have been photo walking Trondheim for ...
