Enga mellom fjella

Ping, wet, wet, wet...

...snowfall.

Me:

Well, not quite. We had maybe 2 centimeters. But I took photos and put them up on facebook. I especially wanted my Costa Rican friends to notice. I pick on them every chance I get!

Almost 2 pm and still some flakes in the air. Been a cold day.

...and to think I could be in Portugal... not too cold there even in winter. February? March when the almonds bloom in the Douro Valley?

Still dreaming.

Slogging through photos of Ålesund Norway from May and Karlskrona Sweden from June. I do want to return, but not in November.

Anyone know a place I could rent for the month of May in Norway?

Went to Airbnb... found a place for under $900/month near Løten (railroad stop) near Hamar... Since hostels can add up to $1,200 to $1,500/month that's not bad. Isolated without a car. It would serve well as a retreat. It includes breakfast. I could practice my Norwegian!

Just checked time and prices for train to other cities. The minipris is $42 (NOK 249) ...must consider this...

Portugal in March, Norway in May... where to go in April?

Yeah, still dreaming.

In other news: no progress on chapbook. I seem to have hit a wall. Emotionally I'm at a low point. But the good news is that I always pull through.
