SUMMER!

I am going to the sea for two weeks. Season's Greetings!

Kauvatsa Moped Festival 2011

Damn! It was good to hear 139 mopeds start their engines. They are now collector's items and expensive (museum registered and renovated pieces up to 3500 €). Mopeds were traditional vehicles at the countryside from the 50's to 80's. A Finnish response to Italian scooters. The last classic ones were manifactured in 1987.

Gardening, Renovating and Soap Bubbles

It's not easy to work when there is a little demanding daughter hanging around. Maybe we have spoiled her, but she wants us to play with her right from the early morning hours. Aww... and we are renovating the house (Riitta is doing a great job with the windows, but it is definitely slow work, which has to be done step by step). My job is to change roof tiles and boards. Luckily, the roof is in good condition and the boards are mostly perfect. Maybe next summer we will have enough money to repaint part of the house, sauna and the long shed.

Summer

Life is great, even though this little girl gives us lots of trouble when we want to renovate the old grandfather's cottage... We have again too much to do...
