May weather 2024

It has been so warm, considering it is Autumn. I am almost always hot, and the temperatures have not come down yet. This is the forecast for the following week ahead:

Very different to other years here! Still in the 20's! I am grateful, as I hate the cold, but the trees are a bit confused. The frangis have flowers as well as rusted leaves littering the ground!

Visiting Uncle Martyn

Martyn and Gail flew up to Brisbane this weekend to spend time with Kristian and Rebecca. I went to see them, specifically him, so I could be with him one more time before anything worse happens. He has been so ill with fybromyalgia, and other ailments, probably caused by his time in Vietnam amongst chemical contaminants. Here are the photos from today.

New driveway and patch beside carport

Paid for new carport section and driveway. Just under $5000. Really cleaned me out though!

Pink Trumpet Tree update

in regard to ur non-blooming tree. I found if u hit it w/ a super bloomer in April, then organics such as a bone meal etc. in spring only, u will get blooms. don't water tree, it likes neglect, don't hang plants on the limbs cause u need to water those & u want ur tababuia to dry out near winter time. Ironite or similar 1x in the yr. is also good. I love this tree & have taken special care to make sure mine bloom. ") Pink Trumpet Tree update:
