That would be the way down, but we’re not going there just yet. Practising the letter F. The blinds are shut. Another dark room with a maze.

Caught In Crossfire Part III
A fireplace up front and a toilet to the left. This has definitely been an apartment back in the days when teachers still lived in schools. Since then it has been something else. Those look like clothes dryers. “Wash hands when you come in the morning”. That’s pretty good advice for schoolkids All kinds ofContinue reading “Caught In Crossfire Part III”
Caught In Crossfire Part II
The corridor between the old and new wings was fairly primitive. You can’t call the new part beautiful from the insides either, but the use of natural light was nice.

The Crime Scene Has Been Cleared
And on we go to yet another already familiar location. This here is the former railroaders’ apartment house, which was featured for the first time in 2021.

Trying To Rail It Again
My adventures through the all too familiar locations I had visited numerous times, had now taken me to one of the many railway stations in the area.

An Ambition For The Ancient
Back when I was a child and we travelled to our grandparents or summerplace, I remembering wondering a massive Viking ship standing on a mountainside. I had forgotten all about it, until I read an article about it the previous winter. The park was built in the 1980’s by a local construction foreman, who lovedContinue reading “An Ambition For The Ancient”
