Unbelievably,…

…we’ve had three straight days of great weather. Shetlanders would use the word “gorgeous” and, in all truth to the word, that is exactly how it’s been. People have been out sledging or building snow sculpture-like projects of snowmen or small caves. Being used to the subarctic, we found no reason to be inside with this wonderful February day…and, unbelievably, it is only just that!

Not being a work day, we headed westwards with Jeppe, to a place we hadn’t been before. And, coming to a road’s end, we trudged uphill only to find a small picnic table waiting for us to use. We had a picnic and enjoyed the view…the sun…and beauty of a snowy Shetland.

  1. Måste säga att jag tycker landskapet är mycket vackrare med snö på än regn, blåst, hagel och åska!

  2. Thanks for your comment, good buddy! Isn’t it amazing what one can do with the filter tools on Photoshop?
