This summer I was walking along the road where we have our summer cabin when I saw these stuffed animals hanging on the line to dry. "How cute" I thought, "Maybe I should take a picture". Then I decided not to, it was just TOO cute, like Norman Rockwell out of Disney. When I got to our cabin I thought "oh, what the hell….." and went back. Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose.

The stuffed animals are, from left to right, Nalle, Nina, Mulle and Lena. The young ladies, and proud owners, are Viktoria Holmgren and Amanda Nilensjö.
