THE GARDEN BIRCH IS GONE

Bye bye, garden birch! The old birch at the garden of our summer cottage (behind those faded black currant bushes in front of the house) folded at storm awhile ago. For so many decades (and many generations) it did delight us there. It survived of many storms through the years no matter how hard wind dragged it. It just stood strongly and beautifully there. Now that weak old tree came to end of it’s life. It couldn’t fight anymore. Just as people decay and past away (like part of my acquaintances from this village, and my father and  godfather also) so will everything else decay and fade away.

DANCING WITH THE STARS (Finland)

HELLO EVERY DANCE LOVERS! FROM NOW ON I WILL POST YOU DANCE VIDEOS A WHOLE AUTUMN BECAUSE…

The show have started again…The great glamorous dance show and it’s time to let that star dust flow in to your room again…

Already three dances have been danced (Miisas dance links are ordered till the first live show from the third). This year there is a little bit extra excitement to me because my favorite vlogger Miisa (a girl from my beloved town of Keuruu) is competing. I hope she will make it to the final! She have made really fine untill this (as you can see on those videos). She’s looking like dancer I think. You can see she’s a former (flow)gymnasts. Her hands are so smooth…but her legs is also doing a great job. Let’s hope she gets even better and stays along because there is some other good couples too and I’m sure this will be tough competion…but I think she will manage! Good luck to you, Miisa!!!

There is a link to Miisas vlogpost (TTK/DWTS) first live show -a whole day with a back stage visit-. It’s very interesting (and brings me memories of my own ”back stage” experiences. It’s always exciting). Unfortunately Miisa is making only finnish videos so this link is only for finns (or people who understand finnish well).

There’s also a video link to 2018 tv-commercial of this show which includes my own poem.

If you still haven’t watched it you can do it now. You can also watch here my post touching this where’s (a free) english translation of my poem.
