Á Árskógssandi

            Húsið að Hinrikismýri á Árskógssandi var rifið árið 2016 og Bjórböð Kalda reist á sama stað. Síðasti íbúi þar skv var Einar Pedersen, fróðleiksmaður af dönskum ættum, sem lengst af bjóð í gömlum torfbæ að Kleif í Þorvaldsdal. Hann flutti til Hinriksmýrar árið 1979 þegar dvölin í torfbænum varð honum tæplega sjötugum of erfið. Einar var mikill áhugamaður um náttúruvísindi og jarðfræði og stundaði ritstörf samhliða búskapnum. Rétt fyrir jólin 1992 fékk hann bréf frá vísindaakademíu New York, þar sem honum var tilkynnt að hann hefði verið útnefndur meðlimur í þessu 75 ára gamla félagi þar sem yfir 40 Nóbelshafar hafa orðið félagar. Einar var einnig mikill sósíalisti og einlægur aðdáandi Maós formanns. Síðustu árin bjó hann svo á Dalbæ á Dalvík þar sem hann lést árið 1993. 
Undir lokin voru alifuglar hafðir á Hinriksmýri en húsið var orðið mjög illa farið af langvarandi viðhaldsskorti þegar það var rifið.

The beautiful farmhouse Hinriksmýri was demolished in 2016 to make way for a bear spa at this magnificent place in Árskógssandur, Eyjafjörður. The last man to live in the house late last century moved to it when he became to old to live alone in his old turf house in a nearby valley.
