Description

Angora asked me to show a Nisse. Well this isnt Danish, actually, it should be German. It is bought in Germany in the 60´s of my beloved mother in law, when she was on her way home from a vacation to Italy together with my parents. She has passed away many years ago, but looking at this, gives me sweet memories about her. I loved her dearly. This is the last season shot, this winter :) Wish you all a beautiful day. We have grey and peaceful weather today. Tomorrow will be quite stormy, they promise. As usual, Thank you for your always very welcome viewing, commenting and fav to my previous post. :-)

Aren't family things memorable? I know they are...I have a few treasures that belonged to my great grandparents and then my grandparents...I can sit and look at them and think, I am doing just what my great granddad did...winding this old clock every day... A neat pic Helle.

He's adorable and it looks like he has a tan...of course he would if he spends time fishing, right? I love the emotion that's evident in this image and your description of what it is and what it means...that makes it extra special!

Hi Helle, coming up from the storm in the Netherlands ;-) A beautiful pic and memories,here. Thank you for sharing them. So this is how an older Nisse looks like, after been fishing. I guess the whole day he's standing next to his pool. Thank you, dear Helle for the link from that song. Yesterday the whole day, that melody was coming up in my head. I listened many times. Fly away on the wings of love> GREAT!
