Back to work

We started working last Monday and it was good to go back to some routine. 
Last weekend there was Firmakeppni at Einarsstaðir and Ingólfur was asked to judge. It was nice to watch and I'll put in the pics later. Hrund, Ingólfur's nice, took part with her mare Vaka. They did well, but have to im prove a bit. But that's just something to work on and we were both really happy that she wanted to take part. 
Later that day I went mushroompicking in the forrest and came home with around 5kg, which I already dried.
You probably remember our posts from last autumn, about the horrible weather and all the snow early in September. Now it looked like this was going to happen again and the farmers decided to go earlier to collect their sheep. We went on horseback to Þeistareykir on Tuesdayafternoon in wonderful weather, nearly too hot. We went 6 together with 16 horses and when the last ones arrived at the hut, it was already very dark and late in the evening. At least I saw wonderful strong northernlights on my way back to Húsavík. Yesterday the collecting didn't go as well as they wanted. The sheep were not happy about being driven and tried very often to turn around and run back to their favourite places. It was a very long day for everybody. Seems like it's going better today. Tomorrow they will drive the big herd down to the valley and we hope there will be still rather good weather, so we can join on horseback. Just keep your fingers crossed for us!
