The photographs were taken in Nuuksio, near Velskola, on February 24th.
My left-side leg, hip, arm and palm are somewhat sore from the fall yesterday. I was rather angry with myself for not taking enough care when riding the bicycle. I had slick summer tires, and didn't pay enough attention, and thus I didn't manage to avoid the icy patch on the road in a curve.
Today I went for a walk despite the soreness, starting at 7:30 AM at Vaakkoi. It was sunny and cold. On open swamps the wet snow had frozen under 1-2 cm of lightweight fresh snow. The snow carried a person walking, and I followed a chain of open swamps in the north parts of Vaakkoi, walking for almost 2 1/2 hours.
So far I have got only 7 hours of exercise this week, because of the broken old bicycle. But I'm thinking of exploring swamps also tomorrow.
