A Windy Day with Skiing, Sketching, and Coffee at the Old Barn

At the decaying old barns on a windy day at the end of February. Skiing over the area, sketching with pen and paper, and making coffee on the Trangia triangle stove. Weather is mild and snow is dripping from the roofs. A nice and a really relaxing outing!

You don’t even have to watch the video. Just play the audio on your stereo. You can picture the video for yourself. Superb!

[@NotASheep100]

Absolutely classic...

[@torbenheikelvinther4535]

Thank you for another great "silent" movie. I am totally in love with the audio in this video. The wind and crispy sound from the match, the stove and the zipper in your jacket is awesome. And the fact that you don't need to say anything is very nice in a KZbin world of abundance of irrelevant fast talk. Thanks!

[@cowboy6591]

I never get tired of you "Revisiting" these places Erik. With mother Nature one gets a different show every time. This time the audio track of the wind whisping through the trees is amazing and brings back my childhood days camping at Cape Cod MA. Listening to the wind whipping through the pine trees during breakfast at the camp. Great video Erik, Thank you.

[@noahbealand]

I've been going through a tough time mentally with some stress and anxiety, waking up in the night and having trouble going back to sleep. But if I put on one of your videos, Erik, I can barely make it through one video without falling back asleep. Thank you for what you do.

[@brycenew]

Erik I love your long observations & deep appreciation of nature. And lack of talking. Very meditative. And connected. Many thanks!

[@MechthildRomahn]

Hey, Eric! You should sell copies of your paintings! They are very atmospheric! Good for heart and soul.

[@lennartphotography]

Dom är charmiga dom gamla ladorna, synd att många rivits bort, många minnen. Tack för en trevlig film.

[@japeltoni]

You have excellent collection of these barns for a mini-film. They are really characteristic and do provide own story of that part of history. Wonderful filming and sound, what a great detail of water drops on sheet metal. That alone shows your eye and ear Erik for the playfield of the film setting. Greetings from Finland, Janne 👍👋

[@rickkearn7100]

Excellent light, Erik, when you were making coffee. You seem always to choose the right times of day. And you hide the microphone(s) well! I cannot ever discover where they are in your posts. Your eye for framing shots is enviable. That shot of the back window for instance, at ~ 1:13 timestamp was masterful. Spring is just around the corner now, hope you are looking forward to that!. Cheers

Дякую !

[@lesnynu]

Coffee time 🌲🔥

[@andreafedrighi495]

A video explaining your ski gear (ski, binding, boot) would be very interesting. I am a cross-country ski instructor, I use Rottfella system for cross-country skiing (in Alp's valleys, Italy) but everything is lighter than yours. Your videos are a reference to dream of beautiful landscapes. Thank you!

[@suebrown3465]

Good close up of your coffee technique Tough bugs in Sweden! That was a very relaxing video Take care and happy sketching 🇨🇦❤️

[@johnwells4536]

Another great video. Thanks Erik. Keep them coming!

[@threedot141]

Thanks for the video Eric! I really love the sound quality of your videos.

[@Mapmywellness]

Thanks for a lovely reminder of a time, long ago, when a friend and I skied up near the Moffat Tunnel in Colorado and found some lunchtime shelter alongside (but not in) the ruins of an old pioneer cabin. Thumbs up!

[@gherghinabutnaru5154]

Thank you for this silent video, too!

[@martasztahura934]

Wow i like the joke of the shadows,the bird and the feeling of the video,nice draw...😘

[@majkabe6335]

🍀❤️🍀

[@candidagomes2774]

[@danvanderwoude4446]

If those old barns could speak what a story they would have! Thanks Erik!

[@yhird]

Thanks for sharing Erik. Wonderful video. Excellent cup of coffee. Cheers.

[@mikaelbjessbo3229]

Thanks. A perfekt Day to Relax in the nature

[@craigrobertson6082]

A great way to start my Friday. Wonderful little outing with some nice sketches and a good coffee. Thanks Erik.

[@erikli6965]

👍

[@andreeacataros]

Great video! 👍

[@dont_delay]

I want to say thank you for showing us your way . I learned so much from you. Now because of you i understand which binoculars are comfortable and useful

[@outdooraf]

And after his coffee, Erik's drawings look like Jackson Pollock paintings

[@JoshuaJohnsonOutdoors]

Very calming. I had a stressful day, so thanks for that.

[@ysgolgerlan]

Thanks for another nice video.👍

[@stevelangs]

Always your videos are soul-soothing. The audio on this is especially beautiful. Also, I hope someday it will be possible to buy your artwork!

[@chrisj49300]

Sunday. Meditation, or watch an Erik Normark video

[@Sleeperknot]

Wow. I never thought spiders could live in freezing temperatures. always thought they thrive only in the tropics.

[@theswede303]

Tänk om man kunde färdas bak i tiden till när dom byggde ladorna. Det hade varit kul och se.

[@deciduousdiscipline9592]

Excellent.

[@notquiteultralight1701]

Hey this was amazing Erik! It looks like what happened to me happened to you as well which is you go to put the stove out with the damper and it somehow flips upside down onto the flame cooking the outside of the top of the damper. That happened to me on a dayhike on a brand new stove right out of the box🙄😁. Thank you again Erik. Take care. NQU

[@haluktekes4221]

Doğanın sesini dinlememizi sağladığın için teşekkür ederim. Sağlıkla kal.

[@terrysmith6676]

Another great video Erik. I love the derelict buildings- there's an amazing beauty with them in that setting

[@paillette2010]

We have wolf spiders, too! (Pnw, US) Btw 👍 And I love how you see the beauty in the skeletal forms of plants

[@alexparr73]

And we have them in Australia as well.

[@jla3772]

Always a good video

[@อมรพันธุ์แข็งแรง]

Wonderful nature and happy nice day. Thanks sharing your job Erik

[@alexparr73]

Your second sketch had shades of manga style.

[@EventyrsorenDenmark]

Looks like the last of winter, soon spring is here even up north at your place. Thanks for the nice watch.

[@undergagorder1545]

Coffee looks a little gritty.

[@borgejohansen]

Bra stemningsvideo! Liker stort sett det meste du legger ut, men stemningsvideoene uten tale er de beste! Det visuelle taler for seg selv! Keep up the good work!

[@warrenstanford7240]

Sad to see the barns dilapidation and the failure to reroof the one barn, farmers must not been the barns for cattle anymore. 😞

[@user-ph6xp9wz9n]

Камера стала получше! 👍

[@carolwilson9341]

Next to the spider were springtails or snow fleas. We have many now in Northern Ontario. Be careful what's in the snow in that pot for water! 😁

[@steveostler]

Enjoyed this. Great audio recording as always.

[@davidevans3175]

Sometime could you please make a long form video? Like 30 minutes to an hour? I get completely absorbed into the world you create and I want to stay longer. Cheers from Los Angeles.

[@KYZ1978]

👍🏻

[@Dutcharmytent]

I really enjoyed your video and anything to do with stoves is just brilliant.

[@joseeke1507]

dear erik we like your cofee moments wat brand of cofee you prefer?

[@ViewfinderMastery]

another brilliant video Erik! May I ask which backpack that is that I see you using? Looks like one of the LowePro models if I'm not mistaken. Thanks!

[@Mcmontana007]

☕️👍

[@robertcrompton2733]

Is that a car door? Guess someone was using it as old-fashioned air conditioning. You know - if it gets too hot, just roll down the car window.

[@outdooraf]

I thought you were going to draw the wolf spider

[@kashifmd49]

What did he mix in hot water?

[@jennikasmedberg8525]

Kanske kan man uppfatta världen du visar som tyst. Men ljuden finns där, de är mer blygsamma och ändå så kraftfulla. Inget prat, inget urbant brus, ingen musik för att underhålla.. Med din förmåga att fånga de små ljuden blir bilderna så mycket mer närvarande och verkliga.
