My Sunday

[1948berg]

I think this is my 250 post at TBN !
Sunday dec. 17
Started by not getting out of bed. Late breakfast, later we got a visit from two friends of ours, and we went for a walk in the forest. Ate the packed lunch at a beautiful wiewpoint in our wood. After a 4 hr. walk we went to visit a friend who was baking bread for christmas in his "Bryggerhus" a building next to the main house on the farm, used as a rough kitchen, for baking and brewing, and saturday washing in the old days, and with a small living room besides it. He made "grislebread", wich means that the dough was given a short stay in the flames, then taken out and given at light coating of water on the surface and set aside for a while. In the meantime the glowing remains of the fire was raked out of the oven, and the light pre baked breads, 24 all together was put into it.
Later we had a grand meal with new baked, warm bread, real butter and cheese or honey, delisious!
We completed the day with a visit in the old workshop on the farm, they used to make handles there earlier.

Gunnar, I'm jealous; that does look like a fine day, some beautiful country, and while I never heard of that kind of bread, it looks great and I've no doubt that it tasted great, too.

Great photos Gunnar. A fine way to spend a Sunday. I must though, that I spent the most time looking at that shop photo. There is a lot of neat stuff in there. That planer is a gem. The big wheel at the ceiling must have once been the drive wheel. The old leather belt looks to be still hanging to the right. Looks like some planes in the background too, up on the shelves. I love looking at other peoples shops. There's so much history and purpose there.

Morning Gunnar.
Now that's what I call kicking back and relaxing...thanks for sharing pics.

Very many thanks for sharing those lovely pictures. Will there be more.

The picture of the country side and the lake are very similar to what is found out at "The Farm" we have. The lake shore is almost an exact duplicate of one taken from our campsite.

The shop, it's tools and construction are very interesting. Hint - maybe more if possible.

Man, that is nice, thanks for sharing those, (although it makes me envious)

At some point, that is just as good as it gets.

Looks like a low ceiling in the kitchen/baking area, (or that's a real tall cook). How about more pics of the building/shed/workshop/house etc. if your still in the area. Looks like a real nice place to be from.
