My current read, Band aid for a Broken Leg

a quote from my current book: "In no time we're up, climbing- Gee these flights are bumpy in these warm air currents!- and I continue to aspirate on the syringe every few minutes and keep an eye on the patient's breathing, and I think, What a welcome to South Sudan, this flight: me, a man shot in the back, his elderly mum, and more flies than a bad Australian summer, all bundled into the back of an empty plane, barrelling towards God Knows What through these beautiful skies where kites and hawks ride the thermals to almost the same altitude as our plane. And I've been in this country just three hours." written by a young Melbourne doctor Damien Brown who spent some time in Angola, Mozambique and South Sudan with MSF. whew.

Catching Up in May

minding a little fellow keeps Granny busy and on odd occasions I remember to take my camera on my walks.. we love walking across the little bridge and watching the ducks.... it is a lovely time of year, cooling down from the warm summer days, not yet too cold the early morning light always attracts me... there is always something surprising popping up in the garden.. Hope you are enjoying the month of May too. Hopefully I'll be back sooner rather than later.
