our 10 year wedding anniversary is rapidly approaching ( on september 17th ) and we decided that it was a fine time to build the traditional finnish sauna that we’ve always been meaning to build. and you certainly need sauna stones for a finnish sauna, so we set out with odin’s grandparent’s and a cousin to an undisclosed location on the shores of lake superior to collect stones that had the most perfectist properties for holding heat and "throwing steam".

it was a tough job and odin sort-of got into the spirit of collecting stones, while taking more than few breaks to throw stones into the lake 🙂
