Welcome to the weekend coffee share! Can I get you a cup of coffee? Or tea? I can offer hot and cold versions of both beverages. How are you?

I’d say that our week have been extraordinary. My daughter’s grandfather is visiting from the US, and we’ve been showing him all of Dalarna these past ten days. I’ve tried to share some of the places we’ve visited this week in my Daily Gratitude Challenge.

I’ve worked four days this week, and during those days my daughter and her grandfather entertained themselves part of the day, and in the evenings we shared a meal together.

I have not spent as much time in the garden this week as I usually do, but I did ride my bike up there a couple early mornings when the others were sleeping.

The mix of sunshine and rain has been very beneficial for the garden. It is growing!

We celebrated Midsummer by driving around Lake Siljan, visiting several of our favourite places around the lake. We enjoyed some good food and perhaps a few ice-creams. The weather was perfect 73F/23C.

A flower garland is mandatory for Midsummer Celebrations.

Thank you Natalie for hosting the Weekend Coffee Share. I am looking forward to hearing about your week, and catching up on all the blogs I’ve missed out on this week. Have refill of your beverage and tell me about your week!
