I drove to the cabin yesterday morning and in the afternoon I was ready for my first hike. The weather was warm, surprisingly warm actually considering the complete cloud cover and wind, but I think the air humidity was quite high which made it feel warmer than those 18 degrees that the thermometer told me.…

I’ve been a bit lazy about updating the blog so here’s a bunch of random pictures and thoughts from the past week. As I mentioned in the last post, I went on an excursion with the camera club to Klövsjö. It was actually quite nice and we got 50/50 weather – pouring rain in the…

This is actually my last day at the cabin. I’m leaving indecently early tomorrow morning to meet up with some camera club members in Klövsjö for a day of shooting. I have no expectations about the photography, but it will be nice to have some company after four days in the cabin alone. Today’s activity…

The weather hasn’t been too bad so far, but it’s patchy and good light is hard to get. There are moments when there is more blue sky than clouds, but that doesn’t last for long and then you’re standing there waiting again with camera in hand. But I’m used to these conditions and I don’t…

It’s the national day in Sweden today, which pretty much only means that it’s a day off. I have been working some late nights in the recent weeks and felt that I could use more time off than just one day, so I took out Wednesday and Friday as well and now I’m enjoying a…

What a surprise. After exhausting my energy yesterday, I felt downright lethargic today. I spent most of the day sitting on the sofa, wondering occasionally if I should try to do something useful. But what the heck, it’s my day off. If I want to sit down and do nothing, then should just do it…

I checked Top Sport in Bruksvallarna. They had the right model, but wrong size – so no ski boots for me. I’ll have to try again next winter. But as long as I have snowshoes, I’m fine. I had an ambitious plan for yesterday, I was going to hike up to Kariknallen (even if you…

I think I achieved some kind of personal record of doing nothing. I had decided to do an afternoon hike so I had all morning to do… nothing. The only meaningful (if you can call it that) thing I did was to write the previous blog post. Well, I did say that this was a…

Gotta love these Easter breaks. 5 days off, it’s a mini-vacation! The only place to be during Easter is the mountains, so I drove to the cabin already on Wednesday evening. I’m glad I have the fireplace now… even though my neighbour had turned up the heat, it was still a bit chilly in the…

Welcome to the 21st century – I now have Internet in the cabin! I got myself a modem from Net1 and it turns out that the signal is really good. I have a pay-by-day subscription so I only pay for the days I use the net, perfect for the occasional visits to the cabin. One…
