Lepojärvi Cabin

Speaking of our summer cabin, here is a picture of the lake. The cabin itself is just 20 meters from the peer. The lake is called Lepojärvi or Restlake (lepo=rest, järvi=lake). The canoe has served us well - my father made it some, what, 15-20 years ago? It's made of fiber-glass, painted camo, both ends have water tight containers, and the comfortable seats are made of overlapping car seat-belts (visible if you click on the photo).

I'm looking forward to the summer season, as stated. Hopefully some weeks will be spent here. The kids, I'm sure, can't wait. They'll probably haul all the animals - ducks, chickens, bunnies - to the cabin where they can run free. There's no electricity, no running water - so a lot of time is spent warming up the sauna, heating the water, preparing food, washing up after food etc. But it's worth it. Sielu lepää, as we say in Finnish ("the soul rests").
