My granddad and the kittycat...

My 88 year old granddad picking the mail.
Can you see the cat is just behind him
Is he walking the cat; or is the cat walking him?
I can see kitty is looking after him; even waiting for him although he walks much slower than he did in his younger days.



almost there
I lovelovelove this man!!!
He is my hero!!

I wish

...
I had a good camera, so that I could show you the northern lights; how it looks right now...

I am spending a week in the north of Norway, visting my grandparents. It is really relaxing. Not much to do here, except eating, sleeping, reading, talking. I enjoy listening to their stories from years back. My grandparents are so wise!! I have so much to learn from them..

It gets dark here really early; I should get up earlier in the morning to get as much daylight as possible (I get a bit tired in this darkness).
But I enjoy reading in bed before I sleep, sometimes it gets a bit late. I brought many-many good books for my holiday :P

My granparents usually take naps in the evening, in front of the tv (with the volume real loud)... I spend this time with My Book (my "Art Journal"). It is getting thick and heavy now. I almost left it at home when I traveled; but my friend told me to bring it. I`m glad my friend knows me so well.... The chance is I could go crazy without it.

I`ll be back in Trondheim on November 17. I can`t post pictures untill then.
Untill then I`ll relax and take the day as it comes. Making no plans for tomorrow. It feels so good!!

Have a nice weekend
