Yay, in what city were you?
Yes, Finland has been nicely freezing cold and snowy latelyThanks for the welcome!
I was in Helsinki very briefly but then flew north to Kitilla (sp?) for a couple of weeks...

Ah, yes, we know all about Finns here in Astoria. I'm named after one and also dated one for a while. Suomi Hall is right next to a theater I helped build. And I've eaten my share of Krumkake while running lights at the annual Scandinavian Midsummer Festival.
Oho, wow. I looked up both Astoria and the history, interesting! What is Suomi Hall? A venue place, a market place, Suomi information/history centre...? Do you want to share your name?
I hadn't heard about the krumkake, but it seems to resemble Finnish lätty/lettu, yammy (well, I'm reducing the use of carbohydrates
)One of the coolest "Welcome" title threads yet
Welcome to our corner of the universe
Yay, thank you! I guess you just made your way to my heart with that comment
It's a bit like a grange hall. It has a stage and space for dancing, etc. The Finnish Brotherhood meets there. I believe it dates back to the 1800s, which is pretty good for this part of the world.
Do you want to share your name?
My name is Mick, which isn't particularly Finnish but I was named after my father's best friend, Mick Seppa.
