Caleb Meyer - Gillian Welch & David Rawlings

Wish I had a fraction of the talented David Rawlings guitar-skills.

To the Mountains

A new day, a new hike!

Today the weather was really nice. 14C and sunny, so I thought to myself that instead of going on a biketrip, I`d better hike up a mountain.
Not to worry, I won`t make a habit of it, but it is really good exercise.


Summit!

















Ørsta













When I got back to the car I turned on the radio, and the song that was being played was "To the Mountains" by Bigbang! What are the odds!!!!

Today is also summit-day for Karsten Holstad, one of my dads friends who is in Nepal trying to climb Mt. Everest.

Good luck Karsten!

Lidaveten

On Fri. evening I hiked up Lidaveten with a colleague and a friend of his.



Great scenery and fantastic view. On the descent the temperature dropped to 2°C so it was freezing.



My shape is still nearly non-existing, but I hope it will improve during the summer.

G.A.S.

Why is it that I come down with GAS (guitar acquisition syndrome) when my economy is rock bottom ?!?!?!



Too bad the price-tag is about the same as a new car would cost me :(

Maybe I should consider a custom-build from a luthier..but then again, it takes seriously forever to get on the short-list with the best luthiers today.

Decisions, decisions, decisions.....

Health challenge

Last week I received a health challenge from family in the US. This challenge was just what I needed to keep my motivation going!! 20 miles on my bike on Sat. in freezing rain, so it`s all about determination I guess :) I`ve cut down on the pop (Sunday only..soccer night) and the sugar, so I hope to lose a few pounds.
