Isn't the tundra unusually green for May? Then you can also ask yourself how it is that there are so many trees growing on it and why there is a lake in the background. The questions pile up and require one or more answers.
The explanation is not as far-fetched as it seems. The irony and dad jokes shine through in the title. It is the knife called "Tundran"/the Tundra, and of course, comes from the eminent company Karesuandokniven. For those who may have missed that post, it was posted yesterday. A novelty from the other side of the Arctic Circle.

But speaking of tundras, it's so green down here in southern Sweden. Something that stands in contrast to our northernmost parts. Especially this time of year, I'm struck by the contrasts, and on this particular occasion, I'm very happy that I live where I do.
I was also happy that it was windy this day and that it had been very dry in the forests so far this spring. This means that all the malicious flying creatures are conspicuous by their absence so far. But apart from that, it was a cloudy day with the occasional rain shower. However, there was a break when I was out walking.
That was the day before yesterday. Today I went to an art exhibition and my wife and I took home a painting by Dregen*.The rest of my Saturday will probably be spent watching this year's "king stage" in the Giro d'Italia. It's going to be tough and now it remains to be seen whether Vingegaard can decide it all once and for all or not. He probably will, but only those who live will see!
Take good care of yourselves, all my good friends out there in cyberspace!
