I had the boardwalk between the house and the summer cottage replaced, but with twist - literally: both ends of the boardwalk now gently rise up and meet the house’s backdoor and the cottage’s front porch level, so there are no steps anywhere. Also, it’s wider than regular, commercial boardwalks. You could say it’s a boardwalk with accessibility in mind.
My wife who has a disability can now easily go to the cottage and spend some time enjoying the lake and listening to music there without any help.
I’m jealous you have two houses and I have a jar of pickled eggs.
We only have one house 🙂 The second building is a summer cottage - with a sauna but no running water and no toilets, and it’s not really livable in the winter. This is quite typical here in the north.
What’s more unusual is that it is rather large: that’s because the family who owned this place before us first built the cottage to spend the summer holidays when they lived far away (so it has bedrooms and a living room to stay in it for a week or two), then they moved here and built the main house on the same plot of land.
We got lucky, we got this place for very cheap.
Oh what you’re not going to congratulate me on my jar of pickled eggs?
Congratulations on your picked eggs. What colour are they?
Most of them are white but one is dark brown.
That one is extra pickled
lol
Now I’m kind of jealous that you have a jar of pickled eggs! I only have some sauerkraut…
I’ll trade you half a jar of pickled eggs for a half jar of sauerkraut.
