Lake Tinnsjå 🏔️

Another glorious day trip, just 10 minutes drive from the farm.

Rich in beauty and history;
• One of the largest lakes in Norway and third deepest in Norway and Europe
• In 1944, during German occupation of Norway, the ferry ‘SF Hydro’ was targeted and sank in the deepest part of the lake by the Norwegian resistance to stop Nazi’s receiving heavy water. The wreck of the ferry was discovered in 1993.
• In 2004, the ferry wreck was investigated and filmed for a documentary. Upon filming, the crew found an unusual fish, swimming near the lake bottom at a depth of 1,410 ft. Two specimens of previously unknown fish were captured in 2005.

On Thursday, October 31st last year, "came a night when the gale was so violent that the farm buildings rocked on their foundations and several tiles were blown off the roof of the barn." 🌪️💨

It’s incredible to think this is an actual excerpt from George Orwell’s Animal Farm—yet it perfectly describes what happened to the barn at Grov Søndre! 📖🐴

Fast forward to Saturday, February 1st, and the scaffolding finally went up to repair the damage. 🙌 This barn is truly a work of art—originally built in 1730 and rebuilt around 1930. The goal is to make sure she stands proudly for another 295 years. 🏗️🏡

I have also really enjoyed chopping wood under a solid roof. 🪵🔨

A couple of weeks back we had some powerful winds at Grov Søndre farm 🌬️🌪️ which unfortunately meant that most of the roof blew off from the barn. 🛠️💔

When you feel like you are moving forward there is always something new to see whether you have levelled up. My old self this would have created a lot of anxiety and fear in my mind but having had the pleasure to own the farm now for a number of years means I am getting more used to being uncomfortable. I am starting to understand that when things get challenging, it is time to get curious and lean in 💭✨. The farm has been here much longer than me, and its projects will outlast my time here.

The barn itself is a true work of art 🎨🏚️—originally built in 1730 and remodelled in 1930 with the stone barn section. It’s incredible to think of all the history within these walls. It was lucky that I got support from Daniel Caetanya Fossum when it happened as helped me move the bags of firewood.

For now, everything has been covered as winter approaches ❄️🤞. Fingers crossed the roof will be repaired before the snow arrives!
