Hi everyone! Just a quick drive by to share a picture from our first successful northern lights hunt! One more today and Wednesday we are doing a reindeer sleigh to look for them. It?s zero and clear tonight so might be a good night for it!
hope everyone is doing well and I will catch up with you all and the thread Saturday.
I did have reindeer today, braised, very good, served with lingonberry jam and also pickles. Here is an interesting thing, only the Sami (indigenous people of Lapland) are allowed to have reindeer herds, all of the reindeer are owned and none wild. They are free range animals though so the Sami can go where the reindeer go, across Russia, Finland, Sweden and Norway.

How beautiful! So glad to see you out there living it up! Thanks for the bit of Sami knowledge. I did have a reindeer burger in Sweden because it was trying something different. Was better than it had any right to be. Yay for lingonberries!

Oh man, like Grim said...it's pouring. Hope you were able to get it handled. And that your dad's procedure happened.
