Same house, ca. 1965
| |

Marie's house 50 years later - nothing much has changed, neither inside nor ourside...
Marie never maried, but stayed all her life in the old house without any modern conveniences. She had all kinds of casual jobs like washing and sowing and when my parents moved to the village, she also came to work in their market garden.
She was also our family's occasional babysitter and it is actually her pulling the sledge on the picture I posted yesterday... ;)
When Marie died in 1978, my parents bought the plot and built a new house on it for their retirement.

Snow fun (1955)

My elder sister Lene and me on the sledge with Marie, a neighbour who occasionally babysitted us.
As I recall it there was always much more snow in the winters back then - or was it just because I was smaller? ;)

Analogue photo by Frode Hansen, prob. shot early 1955.

Bastian having fun in the snow... Sorry for the lack of sharpness, but I think the situation compensates for that. :)
