belated holiday post

Spent a week living at the summerhouse of our relatives, which is situated in a very sparsely inhabited area (in eastern Finland). It's built on top of a big rock on the shore of a lake/pond, and the rock looks almost like a fort of some kind from the water.
My grandparents also live nearby (well, a few kilometers of), in the house where my grandmother lived when she was a child. I can never help finding that house utterly cool and interesting, it's so old. Back when my grandparents first moved there, there wasn't even electricity or running water.




Same house from two directions.






That's the old sauna. It was originally warmed with smoke, so the biggest beams in the inside roof are still black.



Those metallic things are old milk canisters. My cousin and I once stuck our head into a big one that was full of cold water. The things children do on a dare...

Lastly, the pond looking pretty in the evening.
