"Hegge-huldrer" - Eivind with Tone og Aslaug, summer of 1937

"Forest tale"

In 1938 Eivind and Ragna wanted a change of scenery. They rented out the Nordjordet house and moved to Movatn in the Nordmarka forest with their two daughters.

But this "forest adventure" was brief - the location proved too inconvenient. Until the rental contract with the people living at "Nordjordet"expired, they had to hire a house at Tåsen.
