mushrooms...

just a few days of rain and these mushrooms are popping up all over the yard.  Are they always sitting there just waiting for the wet to bloom?

mmm...

there's strange looking ice in the ice container.

Just because it's raining...

's

doesn't mean I don't want to stop playing.

Made this little creature from inspiration from Monster Maud dolls from Montana USA.   Her dolls are crazy beautiful and sold on Etsy. I find them hard to resist.

I'll miss you...

My last day working with Mai. Will really miss this mad little person.  So we started early with the australia day celebrations.

Polish Folklore Doll...

I acquired this little treasure of a georgeous traditionally dressed Polish doll.   She is unique and quite old I believe. Though she does smell a little musky.

random shot...

this old letter box has seen better days.

Twisted Pete's VERY cool car.

hello...

I'm Claude. I live up in the mountains at Kin Kin.  I like to go to the local pub and hang out with my kin folk and watch all the strange looking tourists that get lost and come in to ask for directions to get back out of these mountains. They look very different from us folk up here. Must be all that pollution.

Love my garden ...

and all the random little creatures and odd things that live there, and this cute little cherub.

random shot...

of a heart on this old tree

somethings funny...

caught a good snap of mum having a good laugh about something.

Art works in progress.  I wish I had more time to do all the things I love.

a great time consumer...

this apple sure takes a good bite out of my life.

It's so hot...

that the wildlife are trying to get in the air conditioning.

cold drinks, cool pool

the perfect end to a hot summer day.

a thigamegig...

I don't really know what this is, but it stands outside. an old slab hut at Kershaw Gardens ?????

random shot...

of our heritage buildings

Keeta thinks..

Oh the joys of taking my human for a walk.  I wish they'd keep up with me.  My neck is starting to ache.

fine bone china...

not seen as much these days but being used again with the comeback of High Tea Party's. Nice to see and lovely to collect.

For a brilliant smile...

I think I'd give these  guys a visit.

thankyou Tammy...

for my cute little golly dotee. She's devine.

bliss and contentment...

to say the least.  One much loved dog.

couldn't live without these.

From the 3.5" floppy disc from the past to these 8 gig USB sticks. Technology is amazing.

flat peaches...

are the newest brand I found in the supermanket. But I must admit they are the sweetest I have ever tasted.
