Spring Tidy Up...

My little Henny Penny overseeing her backyard.  Henny was found on my trip to Qland to see my dear friends,  Karen n Keith. A real treasure.

All birds very welcome here! 

A New Friend thanks to the Auctioneers.

I fell for this little lady as soon as l saw her, and thought, you are coming home 

with me.  

So now l have two pieces of early 1900 

art glass. What next?   Hahahaha. 

Windsor, NSW.

It was such a lovely sunny spring day. Duncan was out and Julia in the city with friends... so mumma went for a drive, ending up in the old township of Windsor.  Me and a few thousand others.  It was a lovely environment, l chatted and wondered my way thru this darling little town.  A lovely river walk with magnificent old homes.  Ah...once upon a time that was the dream, now a 1920's bungalow with character features is my goal.

Front Garden Welcome

For all my US friends, yes I still use my garden flags, and no, there is no such thing as garden flags here in Aust.  This flag reminds me of our trip to Williamsburg, do you remember Barbara? 

So many fond memories. 

Pomegranates galore!

I don't know how this poor tree survives as it is growing out of a rock crevice. 

But it has...

And totally loaded with seeds.

The Rainbow Lorikeets love them. 

WELCOME Winter from the Clark House.

Well we haven't been blown or washed away during Sydney's storms.

From the north coast of New South Wales down to Tasmania the weather

has been appalling.  I hope you and your families are safe, warm and dry.

 

Say It Isn't So........!

 

Yep...I know right.....I can't be that old... Not you, Lou?

 

Well, it comes to us all.

Common-sense, maturity, experience, life lessons, heartache, resignation,

freedom, calm, and inner peace.  So they say.

 

Happy Birthday to Me.

Look Who's Turning - 22

 

Yep - The twins are turning 22 this month.

 

More importantly...this makes ME feel old.

 

 

HIP   HIP  HOORAY...IT'S SOMEONE'S BIRTHDAY.

 

25th Wedding Anniversary

 25th Wedding Anniversary

January 27th 1991,  Australia Day long weekend, held at 'Woodstock', 

Cascades Road, South Hobart. 

Thank you to all our friends and family, who travelled from near and far to be with us and help us celebrate our wedding day.  Thank you to Sam and Robert for giving me away and for your support on the day, my dear little men. 

So many fond memories, the string quartet playing on the verandah, the lovely pool with fountain, the sweeping lawns and rose gardens.  The speeches....oh..the speeches...

We danced and danced and loved every minute.

Love to Everyone.
