The Oppdal Train Station.
Opened September 20, 1921..
There is something so nostalgic about the train station and about train trips in general.

No matter how advance our modern world sets to be .. the train will not cease to exist...

There is not much difference for the enhanced version but a bluer sky 😄

Keep your eyes wide open in the darkest of times. Only then you can rely on shooting stars.🌠🌟..
Well, this is not literally shooting stars but the new falling snow does resemble them a bit, doesn't it? 🌠🌟

Where is the moon?🤔
I don't have luck with capturing the moon that it just looks like a round blurry dot in the distant horizon🤣..my Samsung just doesn't like it I think.🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️..

I kind of like how the black and white accents the falling snow..

🎄Christmas day🎄..
According to an old proverb, the best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago and the second best time is now 👍..
This is our evergreen "Christmas tree" and will try to find a way for electricity supply so we can decorate this majestic pine next Christmas 😆🎅🎁..
Have a safe and happy holidays everyone!..

Silent night, Holy night. All is calm..all is bright...🎇

Lighting a bright candle to symbolize prayers sent to the heavens above. Whether or not you believe in God, it is harmless to wish for goodness, peace and prosperity for the whole world🙏💗💫

Cairn
📍🌤📍🌤📍🌤📍
According to Wikipedia, that pile of stone is called a "Cairn" . The word cairn comes from the Scottish Gaelic: càrn [ˈkʰaːrˠn̪ˠ] (plural càirn [ˈkʰaːrˠɲ]). Cairns have been and are used for a broad variety of purposes, from prehistoric times to the present.
📍🌤📍🌤📍🌤📍

Generally, rock cairns are navigational markers marking the right way on not-so-well-defined trail/s.
📍🌤📍🌤📍🌤📍

Have you made one during your trips before?

There is a free art🎁 for appreciation everyday. Just need to look up👆😁..
It's all cold and wintery right now in Oppdal, Norway and for several months ahead..so we are not in a hurry to show off the winterwonderland here just yet😅❄☃️
Photo from July 2020...
On the side note, I hate that lamp post that distracts my photo taking all the time 🙄 is it a good complement or an ugly addition?..

Marble Sky and all its glory☺💛☁️..

Throwback to 2017..
Nothing glamorous here..only lots of hardwork, perseverance and patience. ..
It was literally tons of renovation works and we turned the place upside down! New water and electrical connections..Just to name a few 🤗..
Didn't know where we got the courage to do this but we made it!!..
The lighting of the first photo is natural🤗 not edited. It is a sign from the heavens maybe 👀😄 Luckily I found this photo in my usb...
What was the most courageous thing you have done in your life? Anything memorable?..
