summer


summer holidays are settling in
lazy days with everyone home for holidays
no school runs
no rushing to sport lessons

fences are just fascinating !
we spent boxing day at my sisters house
eating left overs from christmas
meeting the neighbours sheep through a hole in the fence
and a trip to the local beach

the water was warm enough for swimming
and the girls took on the men folk with beach cricket
we even found a christmas beetle

    Well I just realized I probably haven't seen a real christmas beetle in years... Now looking at this one!! I think all this time I've been thinking the more mundane brown things were christmas beetles.. Gee.. have to dig back in my memory bank now!

    Glad you are having a lovely lazy time!!! ciao xxx Julie

  6. Hey Lee, thanks for visiting. It is still quite green here, but with no rain for two weeks and warmer temperatures things are starting to brown off a bit.
    Are you talking Bright as in N.E. Victoria Bright?........
    I'm just a hop, skip and a jump from Bright, bout an hour actually.....
    So if you are in my corner of the woods we should try and catch up.
