Time to go up north for some skiing. Most of the packing and preparations are now done. Postponed the drive until tomorrow morning. Need a good nights sleep first. Our white mystery machine will now be tested for the first time in true winter conditions on a longer trip.

I will be away from computers and internet for a whole week, so no blogging for a while. Be patient, I'll be back. I realized after some weeks of doing this blogging, that it's rather liberating for my mind, regardless of what the subject might be. Sometimes I check my own bloggs weeks later and it gives me a bit of perspective on things. It also marks the time with a touch of uniqueness each time. A bit like photos. That's my main reason for taking lots of photos. Personal documentary of what's happening around me/us, more than trying to capture any nice shots. When I see a photo from the past, I can quite often recall lots of other related detail memory pieces from that particular period of time. Photos or notes are often working as keys or ignition sparks to open up your own memory. It's nice to do some reflections from time to time and when your life situation is a bit hectic, like it is for me at the moment, then I need this kind of support.

I also feel that I suddenly have earned some recognition for my blog, after some interesting and aggresive feedback over the content lately. That was a major break-trough for the Goofy blog ;-)

Happy New Year 2009!
