Is it summer? Yes it's summer.
I already had one whole week of vacation. My family and I took a trip to the fruitgarden of Norway. Not much fruit yet - but lovely weather and red roses:

and summer flowers:

and afternoon playing:

and cool drinks:

and great fishing:

and big horns:

and comfy chairs:

and this is where I actually have something knit-related to show; spending time in one of these fantastic chairs I got to do some reading - and yes - knitting!:

That is the MI Ribbluse growing - slooowly. 3x3 rib in fingering weight yarn is great for travelling! It's light and it goes on forever... And I still haven't fallen out of love with this fabulous crispy wool.
So when the sun set:

and the norwegian albeit bright night grew quite cool - I was to be found near the outdoor fiberspace. Oooops, I mean fireplace:

And summer has only begun...
