Here is the soundtrack of last evening’s moment.
As I relived the passing of many, especially Anna on the 6th anniversary and my loving sister, Kathy Ann 3 years back after nearly a quarter of a century of silence.
Thank You Chelsea for the moment, your CD and mutual hug/embrace.

Combo fresh native Strawberries or even Ligonberry Preserves with tried and true Swedish or Finnish Oven Pancake recipe with Fresh Almond Whipped Cream.
Ah, you betcha!

Very overdue.
Just sayin’.
Repeat as needed.
Our passports need a stamping, before international travel gets more challenging.
Var så god,

Instead of rushing to therapy if you're feeling lost, anxious, or weary of life, consider traveling to a Nordic nation.
The peace of snowy streets teaches your heart to breathe again, the quiet of forests cures you, and the radiance of northern skies resets your soul.
Here, tranquility becomes your medicine, nature becomes your therapist, and life feels lighter once more.
For your recovery journey, would you choose the Northern Lights, mountains, or lakes?
The textile gallery is a do not miss.
Proud Members and Knitters,
Tomas & Marty
Being a lad from The County in my home state with very deep Swedish Roots, a lover of birch trees near and afar.
I share as seasons matter.
The Birch Tree is a hardwood, deep in beauty and deeply admired in my home state of Maine and my deep roots of Sverige.
Have a terrific day, season change and touch of nature.
