Tonight the air feels cool at the oval. It is still and it feels like there might be a frost overnight.

Day 22 – Big Old Tree Bench
It’s the most magical day down at the river with all kinds of little tiny birds singing and flitting through the trees. The water is gently gurgling away. Even the fallen leaves in the river seem to be dancing around in the current, spinning in the eddies and flowing away. There’s something in the air […]
Day 21 – Back Deck Bench
The stillness of sunset. Sitting out here, the stillness brings me to that place where I’m just so present.
Day 20 – Big Old Tree Bench
There’s a cool breeze blowing down the river today. It’s incredibly peaceful at the Big Old Tree. There’s some fishing line tangled in one of the lower branches over the river. A long piece is hanging down and blowing gently in the breeze. Sometimes when I sit still, it’s like I can suddenly feel so […]
Day 19 – Northern Bench
I love sitting on this bench. Today I feel a little bit sad though. Maybe it’s because it was a long weekend here but now the weekend’s over. I still have more of my projects and creative endeavors that I want to do. Or maybe I’m feeling a bit sad because summer is coming to […]
Day 18 – Sunny Cliff Bench
I haven’t been past this bench in years. I used to come to the beach here a lot, but I never sat on the bench on the clifftop above. Today could be one of the last hot days of this summer. It’s low tide and I’m looking forward to snorkelling in the rocks pools below.
Day 17 – Back Deck Bench
We’re just having a freak summer storm. All around us on the horizon the sky is blue, it’s been a sunny day. But right over us is this cloud and it’s pouring rain on us. It’s sunset and the corellas are flying around before they roost for the night. It smells like rain after a […]
Day 16 – Back Deck Bench
I love sitting out here in the sun. It’s really quite windy today but my back deck is warm and calm and lovely. The grass is very green today. It looks so lush in the sunshine. I am sitting out here daydreaming about projects I want to do, things I want to build and create. […]
Day 15 – Ryans Road Hill Bench
Another new bench. This one is actually just shelf of granite rock sticking out from the side of a hill. It’s covered in lichen and it has this wonderful view over a very steep little valley. I like the dry field on the hill on the other side. There’s so many birds out here. It’s […]
Day 14 – Ryans Road Bench
This bench is beautiful. There is this perfect blue sky above and a gentle breeze in the gum tree’s leaves. The bird songs out here are different. There’s a tree here that is so gnarled and old. It’s huge, wider than my car. But yet, the gum nuts that it drops are tinier than half […]
