...and so it begins

 

 

 

This is where we stayed for most of our visit in Norway.

- Eivinds plass fjell gard- 

Geilo

My uncle Karsten is a well known author and pastor in Norway,

he lives deep in the mountains on this farm with 22 cabins that are from the early 1700's.

 

When I was younger I used to visit him during winter and Easter vacation and go skiing here.

 

Eivindsplass is in  Hardanger vidda next to one of Norway's national parks.

This last image is Halling Skarvet and is a glacier that you can hike during summer and ski during winter, Karsten used to pull up me behind his snow mobile and I would ski the whole day here.

 

The favorite uncle- he has always embraced me with open arms

 and was so very kind to my family coming from America.

 

Here are more images from his place in the mounatins

Eivinds plass fjell gard

 

He wants us to move back to the old country in the worst way....and who knows

maybe one day?

 

“Today is your day! Your mountain is waiting. So... get on your way.”
