TAST 13 and daily doings


Here is my TAST for this week, it is raised cup stitch and was a lovely stitch to do, I like anything with flowers! Effective, easy and fun,
Thanks Sharon for this one, see her pintangle blog for all sorts of stitchy stuff, it is on my side bar.
The sunset was on Thursday night, every night the sunset is different but I walked to the edge of the water and took this one with a pelican sailing along the golden water, he tickled my fancy.
The weather has changed, wet yesterday and much cooler and today there is a howling wind and short sharp showers.
Yesterday we went into Pt Lincoln to shop and went with some friends to the Delocoline winery for a lovely lunch. I took the interior shot from where we sat. On a lovely sunny day it would have been lovely, places to sit outside and although the service was a bit slow the food was good.
The last one is of the vines but the bare trees at the top of the photo were burnt in the bad fires that burnt homes and scrub around this area of Pt Lincoln this past summer.
Apparently they had problems with smoke damage to both vines and grapes.
Because the weather is so bad there is no fishing today and we will be going out to lunch at the Oyster beds to celebrate M's birthday. Her actual birthday is Monday but nothing nice is open that day here so as every one is home this was the decision, heavens Monday is sure to be a good fishing day!!
We dont really need to go out to lunch as we have so much food but this is a holiday after all.
