This site also will tell about the other animals and the wonderful atmosphere and nature at the open air museum, Gammlia.
2009-08-22. Here Lorvtroll was alone in the pasture again.
2009-08-22. They had put hay on the ground. And Lorvtroll liked it.
2009-08-22. Yummy.
2009-08-22. Lorvtroll was walking to me.
2009-08-22. I picked some grass for him again. Of course there is grass and hay in the pasture. But the horse always liked the grass that people gave him more.
2009-08-22. Lorvtroll is such a beautiful horse. He is black brown, but in the sunlight he looked almost brown.

2009-08-23. There was no wind and the pond was beautiful in the late afternoon light..
2009-08-23. The pond.
2009-08-23. Now Ove was not reflecting in the water. Because he was not there.
2009-08-23. But this duck was reflecting in the water.
2009-08-23. There were hawkweed growing in the grass.
2009-08-23. I saw a beautiful orange butterfly. It sat down on a flower and then I could take a picture of it.

2009-08-23. Flowers in the garden

2009-08-23. The Sami tent (That is not there permanent) and the red school house
2009-08-23. The old kiosk at the right and the shoemaker shop at the left.
2009-08-23. This is a little barn for a goat. But the roof and the door are destroyed and not repaired yet.

In the year 2007 one of the horses went in into this house and then the horse could not come out anymore and was trapped there. They had to saw in the house to get out the horse.

Now they did not have the fenced pasture by that house.

2009-08-23. The goat was resting.
2009-08-23. The weather was nice that day but there were dark clouds in west. There were dark clouds in my heart too. I was alone.
2009-08-23. Lorvtroll was also alone. Stjärnblixten was gone with the carriage. Lorvtroll was standing there. Immovable like a sculpture. He seemed to be sad.
2009-08-23. Yesterday they had the folk music concert here.
2009-08-23. I whispered to Lorvtroll. "I'm also alone".
2009-08-23. I will pick some grass for you but then I first have to walk around the house to reach you.
2009-08-23. When I had walked around the house, Lorvtroll was not at that place anymore. Lorvtroll was grazing again. Foxy saw that Stjärnblixten was back and Lorvtroll was not alone anymore.
2009-08-23. Now Lorvtroll did not come to me. I threw her grass in the pasture. Then Lorvtroll came and was eating it.
2009-08-23. This was the last day the houses were open for the tourists and the animals were here.

I sat down in the room and listened to organ music on CD. They had a concert on CD that was played on this old organ. This organ still works. But only if you can play organ and get permissin of the museum you may play on it.

2009-08-23. I was looking out of the window. I remembered  the good time I had at Gammlia.
2009-08-23. Lorvtroll was grazing in the pasture. I said:: "Goodbye Lorvtroll, I have to go. I hope to meet you again next year.".
2009-08-23. It was like Lorvtroll understood. He stopped grazing so I could take a nice picture. And this was the last picture I took of him this year.
2009-08-23. I walked away with me head hanging down. It's hard to say goodbye. I love this horse and I love Gammlia and the staff and the nice atmosphere there.

But still I can go and walk there and also go to the museum that is open the whole year. But when I'm working there is not so much time left to go there.

2009-08-23. I walked home in the woods. This is the end of the story about the wonderful time at Gammlia.
