Month: June 2022

One of my favorite things is to see low angle sun on really lush green grass. I love the shadows of the leaves and the trees or whatever’s around on the grass. Today is a perfect example of the shadow of this tree’s trunk and branches on the grass. I haven’t been to this bench […]

There’s a tree down at the cascades today. It must have come down in all the wind we’ve had recently. It’s a medium sized tree. It’s just part of the river and how it evolves though. It may still keep growing, even though it’s down. Some of the river gum branches kind of grow along […]

It’s still windy today. I love the wind in the trees, and I love the Blue Wren Bench. It is one of my favorites. I’m feeling better today, and I felt even better when I saw the blue wrens here. I got a photo one in the grass.

It’s another windy day. Another windy night last night. But it’s sunny and quiet nice this morning. I was torn between taking a photo of my lemon tree completely laden with yellow lemons. They look beautiful in the sunshine against the blue sky. But what I decided to take a picture of was one of […]

It’s been a while since I’ve sat on a bench at night. It’s definitely not my favorite time to do it, but there’s something special about all the different times of day. It’s very windy out here tonight. I can hear lots of frogs, and I’m watching my neighbour’s tree. It’s a big beautiful tree. […]

I’m still sick, so I haven’t ventured far today. Sometimes, you don’t need to go far at all though. I can hear the frogs in the field behind my fence

It was another sunny-ish day. But today, the air was colder than yesterday. I put laundry on the line again. But today it’s windy and drier. So I think my laundry actually dried. My clothesline is creaking in the wind.

It’s nice out here on the Back Deck today. It was a sunny-ish day. I put some laundry on the line, but it didn’t really dry because the air is too cold and humid. There’s no windy out here. It’s a little bit warmer under the veranda, but it’s definitely cooling off already for the […]

Today, there was another Edward sighting. Interestingly, a lady I hadn’t seen before came down here with a bag of corn. She scattered it on the riverbank. She was calling, “Quackers! Quackers!” So maybe Edward is her lost pet duck or something. I wonder if his name is Quackers, or she was calling to all […]

Edward the duck is steaming past me in the river. The river’s flowing quickly and he’s going downstream, blazing along. Today I’m sick. My son has been sick this week and I think I got it from him. But as I sat here on the bench, he brought me a little bunch of flowers which […]
