Photos without a lot of words.

A few photos that really dont need words, just double click to enlarge and you may be able to see the sailing ship, without sails on the end of the Island. Foals in the paddock and on the patio by the house. Yesterday was awful, not as hot as they threatened but still hot and windy but amazingly the rhododendron flowers, that wilted so badly in the heat have perked up again as we had a cool change this morning. I went to the market, collected the papers and did my half hour walk on the beach, John was off with the fellows getting cockles. I am being extra careful today when I go to let the chooks out as yesterdays brown snake was rather large, lovely, olive green rather than brown but first a red bellied black and then a brown in almost the same spot, bit of a worry but it does mean I am being extra careful and looking where I step. John and I had a struggle this afternoon trying to get upright a rather large pot with my lovely small fuchsia in it up right and tied to some thing I just hope doesnt break. Must remember to take some cuttings of it as the honey eaters love it. So nice to be cool again today, although the watering continues. Hope every one is having a lovely week endd.

Beautiful pictures Penny, - I hear you speak of hot days while we prepare for a cold front approaching, but for November the days have been glorious so far.

With those photos you would never need words.

I enjoyed those photos, Penny, especially as we awoke this morning to wind and snow flurries. Cold, and damp today. Hope it's not too hot for you.

Hi P - seems like the hot and dry weather is bribing out the snakes everywhere - fortunately Red Belly Blacks haunt our place - 3 different locations on the block - they seem to be quite territorial. Go well, enjoy life and tread carefully. B
