Memories

 

Description
My best friend when I lived in Norway was a 90 year old retired doctor. As a young man he had dreamed of being an architect or a musician, but ended up choosing the practical route and became a doctor. Even at 90 he still talked about his lifelong dream of designing homes and playing music. He kept a piano in his home - always tuned - and owned several violins, including a special Norwegian violin called a "Hardangerfele". He loved sharing his stories of travelling to Denmark in the summers and playing music with a group of Norwegian musicians when school was over for the summer. He had such fond memories of these times - I could listen to him talking all day long.....we would sit in his kitchen or out in his garden sharing a glass of wine, talking and laughing. This is a photo I took of one of his violins.  This photo is in honor of his dreams.....he died a couple of years ago. I miss you terribly, dear friend.
