A day out to Strömfors Ruukki in Ruotsinpyhtää

The yearly trip with the men of Jaala went this year to the historical Strömfors Ruukki, an iron-factory settled 250 years ago in Ruotsinpyhtää. Main products were nails and horseshoes which were exported to Amsterdam, Barcelona and many other places in Europe.

WK 2010

Work such as painting is pretty quiet in recent days due to the weather and the 2010 World Cup.

For the Netherlands the World Cup started well with a win vs Denmark.

I do hope the weather will be a bit sunnier soon, for the whole day in front of the TV is not good for my condition.

Paint job progress

Slowly but steady ahead.

Paint job

I have started to paint the house. A big job which will take a while.
