What can I say?
I think I am, no, I know I am a great guy!!!
Just kidding, I am probably your
average, husband, father of two, kind of guy.
You know the type, madly in love with his wife.
Loving, caring father.
Trying to make some order out of this mess we all call living.
My hobbies are mainly hunting
of any kind.
Shotgun hunting being the preference.
With my interest in hunting, geese, ducks and grouse, came of course interest in dogs.
Retrieving dogs being my favorite.
Our canine family member is a mixed breed of, Labrador (3/4) and Golden (1/4) retrievers.
She is a good companion and helpful while hunting.
I am also known to do a litle sea-angling.
Last but not the least I am a keen Puffin hunter.
Where I live we have been hunting this type of bird, probably from the beginning of settlement. We have used a thing called "Hafur" from about 1875.
This "Hafur" is a long pole, now made of fiber, with a net attached to its end (see picture).
Hunting is done between 1st of july until 15th of august and you have to have a permit.
By the way, I live in Iceland, on an island of the south coast.
Its name is Heimaey, the largest of the group Vestmannaeyjar, in english; Westman-islands.
My name is Bjorgolfur Ingason.
Sigrun Jenny
Surtsey (Surt-island) was "born" 1963.
I believe this picture was on the cover of Time, it shows how the pillar of smoke worked like a magnet drawing lightning unto itself.
On the far right is Álsey and in the
middle is another island, Brandur.
The eruption finally ended in 1967.
