Allemansrätten, or the Right of Public Access, is one of the unique joys of Sweden. It allows anyone to roam freely in the countryside, swim and travel by boat in someone else’s waters and pick mushrooms and berries in the forest.

Santa's been!

Santa, well OK my Dad, has been bearing gifts of a pair of fantastic hand-crafted ash beavertail canoe paddles. I'd asked my Dad to make me a pair of paddles for my canoe - the "Nice Beaver" -  earlier in the year & sent him the Graham Warren "Paddlemaking" DVD.
Here they are.
They really are the bees-knees, beautifully balanced & perfectly finished.
Thanks Dad!
Can't wait to get out to Sweden & try them out this summer!
