AS a person born and raised in Bellingham Washington state in the U.S.A. I would just like to say that you are lucky to live in a small town in Norway and as a Norwegian American. I really wish that my Grandparents wouldn't have left Norway. It looks wonderful! Don't let it go.

Thanks Ben! But I think you have a lot of nice nature in the US too (a different issue is that americans have destroyed much of it with too much logging). Especially WA has some spectacular mountains, and the inland Lake Chelan in Chelan county, WA is said to be reminiscent of Norwegian fjords. Only difference is that in Norway people actually live in these places while in the US almost nobody live in remote areas, in the mountains etc.
