today we finished digging snow aeay from the bridges. Hansi went on a short sledge trip and I went skiing with Devil to Nyhavn. this picture is from there. it's my old house from 1975-78 and a whole lot of snow...
the weather is great
Hansi shot 4 ptarmigans, so we will have fresh meat for dinner...mmmm
Lapstun and Co are moving from Washburns to Nyhavn, due to rising water in Tunnelelv. they will be heading out for a ski trip for the next 14 days, so it would be easier to move their stuff now.

Reminds me of when we used to dig out up at Washburns to find 'Putulik' (what we named the outhouse, means 'place with a hole' in Canadian inuktitut. ) First a very deep ditch to the approximate location, then an entrance! But that was later in May, not so much snow. i liked the skiing photo, looked like Hesteskoen in the background. We kept a jeep on the Mine road (about where the telephone table was in 2000) and then used a weasel (old amphibian) to go to the house, or went on ski, until the Minebyen bulldozer could clear our road. But we used to come a little later in May.
Hils Lapstun & co., safe journey to them.
Also the bridges story reminds me of the cook(Aage)'s birthday party one year at Flyvepladsen - the river had taken away most of the crossing from the landing strip to the housing, so we all went over on the D-9, in our best birthday clothing. It all looked very different in the '50's. Tunnelelv was in a very different course.
