SPRING IS SLOWLY ARRIVING

THINGS ARE BURSTING FORTH in the garden - but not my Virginia creeper or Manchurian pear. the pear was bought as a barerooted stalk, buds all the way up but no action.  I'm patiently waiting.  

  

PICS from a visit to Don's a few weeks back

the beautiful little pardalotes nest in his wall












I entered Sonja in the Portia Geach




HAD A LOVELY WEEKEND with sunny, luke and etta coming for an overnight stay.  here's etta playing hospitals with sunny, acting out the various complaints of her furry friends :0)

     favorite trees - i pass them every morning on the way to swimming




I love seeing this heron around Lilkenday Ave but i don't want
him to discover my fishpond!



Just back from a mini break - two nights at the Royal Hotel in Sea Lake, a visit to lake tyrrell at sunset which was lovely and time with gael, one of the salty bitches who wanted company on this trip as she took her whippet Mattie on his first car trip.   He was perfectly behaved.   Home now and looking forward to time at home catching up on my book and photos for the exhibition.  Some gardening too. 











Dropping off photos today for the Queenscliff neighbourhood house illustrator exhibition.  Craig Smith and i are doing a talk on sunday as part of the Qcliff writers festival, well not officially but the exhibition is timed to coincide.  it runs thru to the end of October

I'm exhibiting pics and the dummy books from my photo memoir in progress.
