Down the Street

March and April have been far from the usual so it’s been nice to have a normal Saturday. That has included a load of laundry, a visit to the local dairy and going down the street where I saw this guy maintaining surveillance in a hairdresser

Flowers

It’s been a sad time but lots of love in the form of flowers and lovely thoughts in cards and messages has made it easier.

Womading

Last night it bucketed down. Today the maunga has a covering of snow and it’s a glorious day for music, health food and a beer, or a health drink and tempura mushrooms depending on your point of view.
