Renting a cottage for a ski vacation in 1939

Among my father's correspondence, I found this letter

he had received back in February 1939:

Thanks for the letter I received yesterday.

As already mentioned I can supply "dyner"

( bedcover with feathers) and pillows, but I

assume you bring woolen blankets,

because those I cannot supply.

Bread you can buy up here.

Greetings,

70 years later I think about my father and his friends

planning to rent a cottage up in the mountains to go

skiing and having a good time. I also imagine my father

volunteering to find and rent a cottage.

Then the whole group sitting on the train from Oslo

with their packpacks, including woolen blankets....
