the murky truth…
I took this photo earlier this week. It is the clouds, reflected in the Todd River, after the last lot of rain had stopped. Well, nearly–we had a little shower again yesterday morning despite my phone app insisting all was ‘clear’ and there was ‘0%’ chance of rain. Meh. As I was studying the photo,…

please watch this…
Many of you probably already subscribe to or watch TED talks and you may have seen this one. It is informative and uplifting, without being judgemental. If you want to understand, this 20 minute interview is a good place to start.

a frosty few words…
As you may recall I wrote about the hail storm we had a couple of weeks ago. I have been busy with insurance claims and organising repairs but all in all things are going well. This week we had another ‘ice event’ that was just too much fun to photograph, to be missed. The frost…

Let’s play, spot the glasses.
My friend Joanna is the Goddess of small lost things. I am her understudy. Last Spring when I was doing some gardening I lost my glasses. I didn’t miss them until I came back inside, so had no idea in which part of the garden I’d lost them. They were not my good glasses, just…

one camel, no wise man
We are traveling again. I wanted to share some words and photos with you but thanks to WordPress, I cannot. Being the security conscious subscriber I did as suggested by WordPress and set up a two step security verification. It did not work and worse, when I tried to disable it, it has blocked me…

You will no doubt see or hear this quotation often in the coming days, but it’s probably not possible to see it too often. Reblogged from TheWannabeSaint.com. Thank you.
