Such busy days that one might wish to come to the Enderud. A few readers may also immediate- ly understand what the last word at the end of this previous sentence means? I learned its meaning when I was a newlywed wife and entered a family where my mother-in-law understood the word, "Enderud." Those who may have immediate- ly recognized the meaning of the word would probably be descen- dents of families in Norway. The family I married into was of Nor- wegian descent. In the country of Norway there are many family last names that are spelled as follows; Bjornsrud, Garunsrud, Narverud, Kjonrud, Kvenrud, Havardsrud, Prestrud, and Tollerud to name a few. Those Norwegians most likely lived on old farms so therefore the names of the road to the farms had specific meaning for the last three letters of their names. The last three letters (rud) were representative of the word, "road." The Enderud home is located North West of the Dagali (The Val- ley Beautiful) Valley in Norway. The end of the road is the interpre- tation of Enderud. The end of the road undoubtedly meant for one to stop or turn around and go back. We have an etched small window in our cabin showing the home called Enderud; it was made by our nephew. The window reminds us of family history and it also reminds us that we can relax at the end of the road. One of our daughters made a Norwegian sign for us to hang in our kitchen, it reads: "By our table is always room." The win- dow and the sign set our minds to joy and relax- ation. This past month has been chocked full of activities and tasks need- ing to be done. I have noticed a large number of areas of aching all over my body. Moaning and groaning has reared up making sounds that have the tone of a haunt- ed house. Each day has produced a "have to get done" moan. I will have to admit that I longed to sit in a comfortable chair in the sunshine and read a book, watch the hum- ming birds, listen to the gentle breezes through the trees and eat ice cream. The book I chose is titled, "Enderud 1590 – 1975" compiled by Carl B. Klevan. It has now been thirty six more years, 2011 of touching base with the home where the generations of Enderuds were born. Husband’s Norwegian rela- tives are the hard working, loving, caring people who not only live in Norway but in many parts of the United States and Canada. We are excited when we hear from the Norwegians, we have enjoyed visiting many of them in Canada and have learned how to Carolyn Barber make Lefse, Krumker, and Aebleskivers, and they are all mouth watering delec- tables. Yes, it takes some time and some aching backs to roll out the Lefse and pour out the Krumker batter on to the iron cook- ing tool, the Aebleskiver batter is easily poured into an iron cupcake like uten- sil. Ahh, my mouth is watering; I think I have arrived at the end of the road prepared to eat my Norwegian goodies. These foods do however beat the well known Lutfisk. As I close this column I have experienced the "Enderud" some rest, some reminiscing and some renewed energy for the rest of this day. Preserving the heritage of Norwegian forefather’s generations 230 years has left deep and solid roots behind. Let us not our forefathers forget No matter which directions we go For they gave us an heritage to preserve Which is greater than many believe?
