Mountian heat

Our days have been filled up lately with getting a new heating system installed. It works like this (if I understand it correctly):
A hole is dug into the ground, past the top layer of earth and into the mountian. They continue to dig down. A pipe is installed the first bit, through the crust, till they hit rock. Then it is just a hole. After the hole is dug, 2 pipes are put into the hole. They have been connected at the bottom, and at first, there are only 2 pipes sticking up out of the hole. Then they dig a ditch about 1 meter deep from the house to the pipes, drill 2 holes in the house wall, and put the pipes into the house to a circulation pump. The pump makes the fluid in the pipes (a cool looking green goop) circulate, pushing the cooled fluid down the one pipe, and pulling the warmed fluid up through the other.
Inside the circulation pump is another set of pipes that are filled with regular water. The water gets heated up, and pumped either to the radiators that warm the house or to the hot water tank. Thus, we have warm water and a warm house, and only have to pay electricity for the circulation pump.
Confusing? hope not! What is nice is that we will cut our electricity bill almost in half! We did take out a loan to get it all installed, but it will pay for itsself within 7 years! Then it is just an asset.
In the garage I have been working on a moped. I thought I just put on the last coat of clear, but I found a few runs, so I will have to scrape them flat and re-clear tomorrow.
Bjorn has a soccer tournament today and tomorrow. They tied their first match and won the second one. They did lose their last game today. They have one more match tomorrow. If they win their match tomorrow, they are in the finals. If they are in the finals, that match will be at 2 tomorrow afternoon.
This time I was smart enough to wear a hat and shades so I didn't get a sunburn! We (Kris and I) went to Sonja and Ingemar to play a swedish lawn game called kubb. We enjoyed a rubarb crumb pie and vanilla sauce. We made it a short visit, as Kris and I are both really tired.
Kris has been on call 5 nights this week, so he is pretty tired from staying up late so often. Last night I went to an art exibit in a neighboring village and stayed out till 2am. This is really rare for me to first of all, be out without hubby or kids, and second to be out after 9pm! But I had a wonderful time. We had a sing off, a slight incident with a candle out of control, and even did the American national anthem! (One of the artists is an american- Andrea) We really had a blast!
Katrina has been in a cooking mood. Today she made cream bullé, and did a fine job. It was DDDDDDlicious!
Well, I feel a nap coming on, so I will sign off for now. Love and sunshine to all!
