| Nice that we have pictures of this mountain from all times of the year. Might consider to make timelapses during this year. |

| That was quite some job to get the snow off the stairs, not to mention the car and the drivingway. |
|

| Icicles (ijspegels). Not only on lights, also on the edge of the roof, the mountainside along the highway etc. scary..in a way. |

| Although, some of those trees there have been cut down by the half, so it's not all by the snow, but still it looks nice how the snow lays on the trees ;) |

| Grey sky, some sunlight breaking through and masses of snow. What would you like more? That it stayed? yes.. true. |
|
| This is the downside |

| This is the downside of snow. Lot's of snow. The tractors come to push the snow off the road. Result: high snow wals, even at the exit of your cardrive. The snow is also very slippery, but with spike tires alright to drive. The real hell starts when this snow becomes sleet. Then your spike tires don't help anymore and you just slip down the mountains. Luckily we could steer ourselves to stay savely on the roads. |

| And you clean your driveway |

| Sigh. than you clean the driveway when the storm is over (took us over an hour to clear there). And than snow falls again on the car. Nasty fact, it froze aswell on the car. Sigh.
See how high the walls of our own snowshuffeling are? |

| This photo was taken in Lyngdal. I had to go to the dentist and to not have any accidents I took the very long road (Liknes-Lyngdal-Farsund). That road costs on toll 2x20kr and back again (sigh 80kr toll). But in Lyngdal it was chaos with the snow sleet anyway!
On the parking place of the Lidl it was 0.5 meter of water even! |

| This is the road into Sandvatn st. As you see, we had a bit of snow again and well on the road conditions you will notice it is a bit slippery. |

| And yes.. there it is.. at 29-10-2008 we get the first snow in Sandvatn. About 5 cm I guess, on some places it was more. It all went away again, but we do expect snow with christmas. |
