The day that was

I should be dancing with joy that today is the first day of a fortnight's break, but sadly Friday was a huge day in the office (thanks real estate agents for making house settlment dates on the last day of our work year, NOT) so I need to do some tidying up at the office Monday morning.  Some I can do remotely but we are still primarily paper based so the office it has to be.

Saturday has passed no cooking, sewing or gardening even.. Did get to the library for a pile of fiction/browing books, a walk on the beach, some boxes emptied and a lovely chat with Xanthe.

Photos titled "what I saw on my walk tonight."





Not sure whether the trees are pohutakawas or Northern rata, but often called the New Zealand Christmas tree as they flower about Christmas time.  Our garden is full of them, fine now while they are little but not a good tree for a surburban garden.  Will have to learn how to prune them.  Wonder if they flower on old or new wood?

  1. Maybe bottle brushes? Lovely house... The pohutakawas out our way are in full blossom. Hot summer ahead!
