Swede

(Sunday, July 27, 2008)
Decided to buy the Subaru. Talked him down a little, so I got it for $1,500. I hope it will run forever!!! It is so scary to buy a car when you know so little about motors etc. I had an oil change before hitting the road to Homer.
When I was going to buy some groceries I saw a little boy with a blue and yellow shirt "Three Crowns" (Tre Kronor) so I went up to him and asked if he spoke swedish. His dad walked up and started speaking Swedish with a southern dialect!!! (Where I am from!) He was from Horby and is now living in Seward, about 2 1/2 hours from Homer. He gave me his number and e-mail and said I can come celebrate Christmas and Midsummer with them if I want to. There are a few other swedish families they get together with too. Sounds like fun.
