Nea...yes, Skoog is Swedish. My husband is 100% Swedish and I am 50%. My maiden name was Olson.

Your Mountain Climbing photos are beautiful? Are they near where you live?

What is Gaia?

Hi Lori
My husband is also 100% Swedish, I'm not 50% Swedish, but my children are.

These "mountains" are on the college campus that is right opposite our small appartment in town. (We prefer to be in our little red house in the forest.) We can see mountains from our appartment, but they are a long way off and these are just piles of snow, I'm afraid.

Gaia or Gaea is the Earth considered as a living entity within the solar system. She was also the godess of the Earth in Greek mythology.

Nea,

Clever photos of the "mountains." Thank you for explaining Gaia.

Your welcome, Lori.

When did yo learn to speak Swedish?

Nea said...

I'm still learning, Pat, but my first job here was in an old peoples home, only one of the residents spoke English so I had to learn Swedish fast. That was 20 years ago this summer.

And Lori, I meant of course that "you are welcome", sorry I must have been a bit tired.
