Dude. Sweden is beautiful. But, what's the latitude? How many hours of daylight to you require to remain sane? And, snow. They have it. In abundance.

Nice place to visit, awesome place to run sled dogs, probably not my first choice for a horse farm. My opinion, and worth what you paid for it. :innocent:

My father was born and raised in Sweden, and is the only member of the family to emigrate. I laughed when I saw the pool, because I think you may have 6 weeks of use, tops!

It is a gorgeous country, but as RR said, nice place to visit but not a place to own a horse farm!

Funny story...my uncle owns horses and one Christmas Eve after dinner, the men of the family went down to the barn to "check on the horses" which was code for smoke cigars. They got down to the barn, but could not get back up the little hill to the house because of ice. To make it even worse, our family dresses up for Christmas Eve, and they were all in formal wear with thin overcoats. The women did not notice for hours! When they did finally did look out, they said it looked like a bunch of drunken penguins falling down in the ice... :teehee: :teehee:

For being in Sweden, they sure do seem to like American flag decor. Beautiful property though!

I love it and would move there tomorrow if I could take Ury with me. I don't mind the snow and seeing as there is an indoor I would be just fine. ;-)

That farm is gorgeous! Edited to add that I could not live there though. I was born in Alaska and lived there until I was 18. I couldn't do the cold and darkness again. My parents still live in Alaska and visiting is enough for me. :teehee:
