Where would we be without the internet at a time like this? Lots of things to look at, research, order on line or in this case keep me amused while it rains. Being stuck at home without Skype would be awful as at least we can keep in touch with family and friends throughout the world.
The garden is unbelievable. A bit of rain and everything goes wild, I'm having to mow the grass twice a week now! It does look beautiful though when compared with a couple of months ago, lush and green instead of dust bowl.
This may seem to be a strange photo to add but it tells a story. Blocking off our view of these units next door were a couple of big pine trees. The units are laid out in such a way that they formed a funnel for winds during one of our hottest days on record. Pine trees, very strong wind and a 50C day don't go together, hence two dead trees, a gap on the fence line and some firewood. The next tree along has suffered a partial loss.
A rare visit from a group of Yellow Tailed Black Cockatoos at the water bowl.
Nice to see as always, Sulphur Crested Cockatoos.
Look how green and lush it is.
A bed of Canna Lilies.
Nectar loving Rainbow Lorikeets in among the Grevilleas.
We will have a bumper crop of Navel oranges this year. The branches are so full they have to be propped up,
Its the same with the Lime tree. I can see a batch of marmalade being produced later in the year.
Crepe Myrtle.
Guess who forgot someone's birthday!!
As I tried to explained, I couldn't get to the shops as we are in partial shutdown.
I'm not sure she believed me.
