Spring

The snow is melting fast. Our roads looks like rivers at the moment.

Uphills the melting water makes small creeks in the rotten snow.

Lately we have had very mild weather, we even had heavy rain. The swans are back in a calm river. They have a stop here for a couple of weeks every spring.

Local ladies dogsledding

Saturday 9 ladies from the village came for dogsledging and social gatering at Skjærhaugen. Got photos of most of them:

It is often lurking around the house. Not very shy, it would steal food if we left it outside. Earlier this winter it destroyed two snowlights the kids had made, and chewed on the candles to find out what it was.

Windy day

Ready for Norway-Sweden

Today Aslak left with our last group for the Norway-Sweden trip this year. They started in Dividalen and will sledge to Jukkasjärvi. Weather today was superb, but it is going to be windy and start to snow durinig the evening.
It takes a while packing and preparing all the sledges before take off.

Harnessing

Very eager to go. "People, please hurry, we want to run now!"
