I thank you for your congratulations and I pray for a future 4th where the only reporting of explosions on CNN are fireworks.

Greetings from a part of the US (the Pacific Northwest...Seattle, WA. area) with a large Norwegian population. Even I have tasted Ludefisk.....

Thanks but we know the real reason.

Any excuse to drive the vette!

There are some snow in the mountains wisible from my home all year round. This winter was extreme with LOTS of snow in combination with very cold spring. The temp this week has been around 20'Celsius.

(The main reason i drove the vette to work was that it had to be washed after a 1500km trip this weekend to watch the Motocross World championship in Sweden)

BTW the norwegians day is May 17, and everyone is free from work with full payment! We truly appreciate the freedom since we were occupied by the germans during the 2world war!
