Seen on my walk a few mornings ago - gorgeous. And birds on a wire!

Parkrun 3

Beautiful morning though it is becoming a challenge to get out of bed in the cold.

I must be getting better as I barely raised a sweat today!

Pre-race briefing - chatting with new friend, Elizabeth.

On the track with Elizabeth (to my right, in blue) who kept the pace up.

Glamour walk (except for tongue!)

The big finish... a jogging effort.

Hello friend!

A visiting magpie, basking in the sun, and gulping down the remnants of muffins and hot cross buns scattered on the lawn.

The dew is heavy on the grass this morning (he's standing amongst the rough holes and downward track where the rain from Cyclone Debbie washed away my topsoil, grrr), and the first cold snap of winter has arrived, so I guess the birdies need food-fortification all round. Lee-tull things!

And this was one of the beautiful scenes from my walk this morning.

ANZAC Day 2 - I painted the garden beds

Half done - the contrast

All done, including posts and wire. Glossy!

Compare with the way they were - much nicer now.

The background makes it look like I live in a rain-forest!

I think the green looks better, neater. Less raw, and blends in with the garden. 

I'd like to paint the back fence the same colour - River Gum.

ANZAC Day 1 - Morning Service

A beautiful morning whereupon I made raspberry & coconut muffins at Mum's and painted her back porch.
