 Amongst all the pandemic news, we get to do some normal things like taking photos of some of my favourite things A little difficult transferring from an old broken down laptop to a new one. But I'll learn eventually, hopefully. May God go with you this month. And at this time of grieving for so many,  I will add a link to a favourite sacred piece LUX AETERNA  from Elgar's Enigma Variations.

there's a bird in the top of this tree.... I don't know whether to blame the photographer or the camera for a not so clear photo... I suspect the former! One day I took some photos of the dying bromeliads ... and here is another photo of the beautiful African violet... And that is about it for this week. Gosh I haven't even been over to the beach...we have had very hot weather then very wet weather!! Hopefully we may have more days that feel more like autumn soon!! Have a great week everyone!!

Did I post the African violet yet? It has been so pretty... and the full moon was pretty good too ...  always fun to see the Australia Day parade go past  even though  the date we celebrate it  seems to be becoming  quite contoversial some people even call it Invasion Day... the tennis has been interesting too, but of course I have been forgetting to take photos of it! Hope you have a great Australia Day week!!

 rainforest walks..  trips to the ocean...  watching the leaves fall enjoying the flora..  more beach trips...  sleepovers...  vivid colors beautiful roses.. anyone for a cup of tea?

some images form around the church in Toowoomba...the Spring flowers have decided to arrive a little early, what a treat for us all and the bride...I do hope there are some left in a month's time for the Carnival of Flowers they have here! a lovely magnolia tree in the yard beside the church.... lovely arrangment in the church.... flowers being prepared for the tables at the wedding breakfast.... some images from the garden.... and inside.....an african violet.... and some lovely nasturtiums that were cheery at our front door.... the dracaena in my garden is flowering....I don't think I have ever seen it flower before...maybe it has been the long drought that prompted it.... and a final shot from the conservatory flowers at the wedding breakfast...
