MY ROAD IS CHRISTENED AND OPENED

WE WAIT FOR NEIGHBORS.  HERE WE GREET INGRID AND AGNE ARNHULT.  INGRID BROUGHT HER CAMERA AND TAKES ALL THE SHOTS.

MORE NEIGHBORS ARRIVING- EVEN 4-LEGGED.

GUN IS GODMOTHER AND SHE AND GUNNAR EVEN CAME WITH A SIGN FOR THE ROAD!

AN EXCITING MOMENT

THEN I DROVE FIRST, LOADED WITH A CARTON OF WINE

ANNI (THE WHITE LITTLE SPUTNIC)

AND THE OTHERS FOLLOWED

EVERYTHING WENT FINE GOING DOWN

CATARINA HELPS WITH SERVING THE WINE

CHEERS !!!

THE OTHERS TURNED BACK THE SAME WAY  AND I TOOK THE SWING

SUCCESSFULLY UNTILL THE STEEP AND QUITE WET PART.     HERE I NEEDED HELP!!

HERE I DIDN´T GET FARTHER.  THE WHEELS WERE SPINNING.

TOOK OFF THE WAGON

AND TRIED AGAIN

GOT IT RUNNING WITHOUT PUSH-HELP

AND GETTING ON THE FIRM PLATTING (WHERE I ALSO HAD ARMORED IRON-MAT HOOKED ON) THERE WERE NO MORE PROBLEMS.  NEXT YEAR OR LATER THIS FALL, I WILL MAKE A PLATTING MOST OF THE WAY, SINCE THAT SEEMED TO BE THE BEST!

MAKING A ROAD THROUGH THE WOOD

HERE I WANTED TO MAKE A ROAD TO GET DOWN TO THE FIELD WITH MY TRACTOR  BUT ALSO TO SEE MY WOOD MORE OFTEN.

GOT HOLD OF GRAVEL

AND WOODEN, IMPREGNATED PLANKS

STARTING AT THE TOP WITH GRAVEL

BUT COMING FURTHER DOWN I HAD TO BUILD A WOODEN ROAD BECAUSE IT WAS SO WET IN THE GROUND

HERE SOME MORE WATER RAN INTO MY TINY STREAM

THE BRIDGE OVER MY STREAM

NOW YOU CAN SEE THE FIELD IN THE BACKGROUND.  HERE ALONG THE STREAM ON THE RIGHT, I REALLY FILLED UP A LOT TO MAKE IT MORE EVEN.

GETTING CLOSE TO THE FIELD AND MY WOODSHED.

THE WOODSHED  LINKS AND MY CAR WITH GRAVEL DOWN ON THE FIELD.  HERE I MADE A CIRCLE SO IT WOULD BE EASIER TO DRIVE UP AGAIN.

APROACHING THE SHED

AND HERE IT ALL STARTS AND NEXT BLOG WILL BE THE CHRISTENING AND OPENING OF THE ROAD!

WOOD, WOOD, WOOD !!!

THE TREES CUT DOWN WERE MAINLY THE TYPE WE MAKE WOODEN CLOGS FROM HERE IN SWEDEN.  THE CUT SURFACE BECOME DEEP ORANGE, ALLMOST RED.

IT SUITED MY NEW CAR.

SO I JUST HAD TO START SOMEWHERE

AND MY PRIORITY BECAME THIS BIG HEAP BECAUSE IN JUST A COUPLE OF DAYS IT STARTED GETTING SMOKE FROM IT AND I DID NOT WANT THE MONEY I PAID FOR THE WORK, TO BURN UP.

SO I TOOK SOME LOADS DOWN TO THE FIELD TO FILL UP WHERE NEEDED AND MANY LOADS DOWN IN MY WOOD BECAUSE I DECIDED TO MAKE A ROAD SO I COULD GET DOWN TO THE FIELD WITH MY TRACTOR THROUGH MY OWN WOOD.

BOUGHT MYSELF A CHOPPING-MACHINE

AND BURNT UP ALL THE LITTLE TWIGS

ON MY WAY TO THE FIELD

GETTING THE EXTENSIONS FILLED UP

MAKING MY WOODSHED BIGGER

SEPTEMBER 2004 I MADE THIS SHED BECAUSE A LOT OF TREES DOWN BY MY FIELD WERE TAKEN (MY VIEW WAS GREATLY IMPROVED)  IT EVEN SURVIVED OUR TERRIBLE HURRICANE "GUDRUND" WHO SWEPT OVER THE COUNTRY IN JANUARY 2005

THERE WAS ROOM FOR EXTENSION FURTHER IN!!!

SO I STARTED EXTENDING THE SHED

BUT SOON FOUND OUT IT WAS NOT ENOUGH!

SO HERE I MAKE FURTHER EXTENSION INTO THE WOOD

HERE THE FIRST PART IS ALLREADY FILLED UP

THERE IS STILL ROOM FOR DRIVING BY WITH MY LITTLE TRACTOR "JOHN"
