The sun is out today so I went cycling. Even though the thermometre didn’t show any impressive numbers, I knew from experience that it would soon feel warm so I wore a t-shirt and a thin wind jacket and fingerless gloves. This time however it didn’t help me no matter how hard I was pedalling, the wind was cold and the sun hadn’t heated up the ground sufficiently (still some snow left from yesterday) so my fingers and ears started to freeze.

I made a brief stop at a sunny and wind-protected spot to thaw out, hoping that it would get warmer as the sun was getting higher in the sky. As it turned out, the opposite happened – clouds drifted in and I realised that I was cycling into rain. I just hoped that I would make it to the Färila Hembygdsgården before the rain to sit it out there.

But I needn’t have worried about the rain. It started snowing instead. My clothes were feeling increasingly inadequate but at least I wasn’t getting wet, so I ignored the wind shelter and used the opportunity to shoot the snowfall at the Hembygdsgården.

The snow cloud drifted past quite quickly, and the sunshine felt all the warmer when I started cycling back home. But oh goodness me, how good it felt to get inside and have some hot soup for lunch!
