It has been raining a bit since yesterday, and the temperature is at +1 °C, so the remaining snow is compacting and soaking up water. The forecast promises -10 °C for tomorrow, which would mean that the snow freezes, and could even carry a walking person. That would be nice, walking on the frozen snow, it would feel like spring.

These photographs were taken on January 24th in Luukki, walking around lake Vääräjärvi, following a river west of the lake. And I just realized that the river has a name: Lakistonjoki.
