Our summer lakes
Svara
In our naerest summer lake swinging a small boat with a very grand name – yes, it is I who named her. ”Lotta of the seas” is our own little cruiser in Trolla lake.
Last night we took a ride in the boat. In our basket was shrimpsandwich and ”champagne” from Mosel. Ronny wanted to try some fishing……it did not work so well……
Our lake is small, but wery cozy đ
There are two others, much bigger lakes nearby. ItÂŽs ”HjĂ€rtareds lake” there are several bath / beaches. 4 km from us, I have a secret beach, where you can swim all by yourself, (top photo, left). ”Stora Neten” is another large and deep lake. There are boats for hire at both of this lakes.
I also want to show you our new entrance to the house. Ronny and some boys from KS entreprenad was sweating for three days, then our ”Uthuset” got a nice wall with stairs. It is so nice! A quick trip to the big, yellow store (GekĂ„s) our convenience store, to by two large pots and two plants, did the entrance complete.
Tomorrow itÂŽs already August, but we hope for many more summer days and lovely summer evenings đ
Our sunny terrace
Today – finally, I had the opportunity to take new pictures on our terrace!
And I tryed it also. The sun was shining, the gras was green, the flowers in bloom, the birds singing and the beer was cold……perfekt! Yes, our terrace ”is working”.
We hope for many sunny days for our guests, enjoying the sun on the terrace.
Willkommen in Slamrekullen!

The boat is in the lake
Finally, we have waited many weeks! Now, Trolla lake, our nearest little lake, got a brand new bridge and today, the boat splashed down in the wather đ We have the boat together with our neighbors, but if itÂŽs free, our guests can borrow it.
In my little binder in the house, (the one with lots of information) are now several suggestions of walking paths nearby. The day before yesterday, I tryed a new one it was almost five kilometers. Here is some photos from my walk.
It seems to be a nice week, with good weather. Tomorrow, we are welcome a couple from Germany.
Have a nice day!
Yellow & blue
In this time of year (May and June), Sweden show their true colors.
Everywhere shines the yellow canola fields. 
At Slamrekullen (and in the rest of Sweden) it has not rained in two weeks! Everything is very dry. ItÂŽs very rare that we have to water the lawn, but we did that this week, otherwise it will die. Everything has grown so green, just in a few weeks.
Today, Ronny and our dear neighbor, Jörgen build a new pier at the lake, ”Trollasjön”. Soon we can use it and take a trip with the boat.
Have a nice day!
TschĂŒss! I try to learn German đ
A small film
I want to show you a small film about my hometown – Falkenberg and the local environment in Halland. The film is called ”Falkenberg – past, present and future”. Falkenberg is located in the coast, ca 40 kilometers from Slamrekullen. Famous for the fine sandy beaches, Falcon beer, the delicious mached potatoes in ”mojjerna”, the new football arena, the beautiful scenery around Ătran and the old town with the church ”St Laurentii” from the 1300s. The film also shows the most popular ”holidy trip” in Sweden – GekĂ„s. And this mega store, is NOT located in Falkenberg! In Ullared it is, where we lives! If you want to visit Falkenberg, I have some ”tips for trips” in my small binder in the house.
Sometime there is problems to show the film!!! You can search on ”youtube” – Falkenberg – dĂ„tid, nutid och framtid.
Slamrekullen is ready for the Easter holiday
Yesterday, we welcomed our first returners, a family from Denmark. They wanted to celebrate Easter with us at Slamrekullen. We are wery happy about that! Of course, I wanted to make the cottage extra cozy and ”Easterhappy” đ The spring, in the forest at Slamrekullen is bright and full of birdsong. The sun rise early. Almost 06:00 it rises over the treetops.
We want to wish you all a wonderful Easter!
Our toilet
I have just been out and cleaned and fixed on the toilet. This week, the plumber was here and connect the water to the new water tap. CraftsmenÂŽs really great! Can fix the electrical wiring and water connections you shall not make by yourself. But they leave the room quite messy! I wonder, why is there sawdust all over the toilet? Well…it was fine, now when I have cleaned away all the dust. Wondering if it was the last sawdust, I cleaned away? You have no idea HOW much sawdust I have cleaned, in this house….OMG!
Now, the toilet in the outhouse is complete. On the walls I hung up Annies old window, and a waching pat frĂ„m 1841. I think itÂŽs nice and beautifully with old tings. Things that we saved, find there places in our house, even though itÂŽs only on a toiletwall….
Snowy Sunday
OH! I long for spring now. I want to plant and decorate the terrace . We have some new projects there. But now, it snows a lot! I have to wait……
Last week, Slamrekullen had the frist guests of the year. It was i nice family from Denmark. They liked snow.
This weekend, we do not have any guests. Ronny has spent a few hours on the toilet! đ Because there was not quite finished yet. Beside the washing machine there will be a water tap and a sink, and a bench on top of the washing machine. On the wall, a shelf and under, we should put an old waching paddle from 1841! Now Ronny will call the plumber, then we will soon have water in the tap.
I hope spring soon will be here….
