Huonosti ja Kaunis .......

No text, just some pics...to aid learning of the Finnish language..Huonosti & Kaunis...you figure out what it means ;)

So this is apparently NOT snow according to my son!!

What happens is the snow, stones, salt and sand mix...
and then as the sun shines, the parts where the stones are melt and all these bizzare peaks and funky shapes develop...
I always think of scenes from Lord of the Rings...UGLY in a most fascinating way

Sections of the paths at the moment are still heavily iced  while other sections dry and dusty covered with stones.
These parts are hard to manouever ones way through...Notice the brown piles of 'not snow' on the sides

Look closely to see how it melts and weird shapes form..

Blue skies and white snow....Gorgeous...

This is the scary stuff...
water melts from the sides which when covered by shade turns slowly back to ice...
which is VERY VERY slippery

So ugly its beautiful!!!!!

Beautiful....Some fishermen enjoying the sun and beauty of my favorite route in Oulu

Do I need to introduce my boats again???

So there you go...

Bad & Beautiful all at the same time.....

Only 3 days left....Come on, sponsor me....
