# 181 Länge sedan – A long time ago (58/365)

För längesedan var de här två författarna riktigt stora, och åtminstone den ene finns med i våra historieböcker. Dessa två verk har sett bättre dagar, men är fortfarande mycket intressanta.

A long time ago these authors and adventurers were very famous. The two books on my table have seen better days, but they are still very interesting.

#164 Lapp på lapp – Notes on notes (57/365)

Mina barn har fortfarande med sig urklipp hem (från Metro) och byter ut lapparna med kylskåpslitteratur med jämna mellanrum.

My children still bring home literature for the fridge and change the notes every month.

# 291 Stenhård – Hard as Stone (54/365)

I Vedema ligger enstaka klippblock utslängda mellan träden. De är både stora och vackra – och stenhårda mot den mjuka mossan.

In Vedema there are huge rocks and boulders thrown out among the trees. Surely left from the latest ice age, they stand hard as stone against the soft mossy ground.

 

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: This Land is My Land

As I was walking that ribbon of highway, 
I saw above me that endless skyway: 
I saw below me that golden valley: 
This land was made for you and me.
 I’ve roamed and rambled and I followed my footsteps, 
To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts; 
And all around me a voice was sounding: 
This land was made for you and me.

Of course Cee’s challenge must be applied on my own country and land – Sweden.

 

Weekly Photo Challenge: Express Yourself

I don’t know if this is a proper example of how I express myself…but we had great fun – and that surely is a way of expressing oneself.

The three of us had been a whole day exploring British Museum, and on our way out, my son caught sight of this bench with sleeping people. Irresistable! So we sat down beside them and tried to look exactly as tired as the other ”benchers”. My daughter took the picture. Nobody noticed…they kept sleeping as we left.

# 348 Vriden – Twisted (49/365)

Idag kastade jag julstjärnorna eftersom de hade tappat många blad – och julen är ju faktiskt över. I fönsterkarmen låg kvar en vackert vriden bladrest.

Today my poinsettias had to go. Left in the window-frame – a beautifully twisted leaf.

# 14 Benen upp i luften – Legs up in the air (48/365)

Totti ligger gärna med benen upp i luften när han mår bra, sover, eller blir kliad på magen.

Totti often sleeps like this – legs up in the air – when he’s feeling fine being scratched too…
