A cold walk

 
 
 
 

Max and I walked early this afternoon, we were supposed to have a sunny day but it has been cloudy all day.I went in to the market early this morning and bought a lovely primrose which is now sitting by the back door. It is rather lovely walking at the moment, not too wet and muddy but the smell of the smoke from the fire and the call of the currawongs, who only come down from the hills at this time of the year. The filly foals have all been weaned and have a large bale of hay to eat and walking back up to the house the trees have mostly lost their leaves so having to blow to clear them away is almost over. We have had such warm weather that the crab apple thinks it is time to flower which it isnt and the winter honeysuckle (woodbine) is also flowering, which it should be. Well I am going back to the fire to do a bit of knitting, it is cold out here with my computer.
