OK, OK, I know I skipped a day, too much sun and fun.  Yesterday was taken up with a little engineering, thanks Ron for the tip, it worked gang busters and I used my Dremil for the 1st time and works well.  While I was engineering Sheryle was playing with her Dreampot, yes Dreampot, I am her dreamboat and I don’t mind if she plays with me either, the 1st meals to come out were delicious, previously she tried on osso bucco which was great yesterday was a sugarless gluten free fruit loaf, actually very nice cold with butter or as a pudding, today similar only in a loaf tin rather than round tins and minor changes to the recipe, yum, corned silverside for tea should be OK too I’ll let you know. (well after our evening Dreampot meal, totally thumbs up, corned silverside with boiled potato, carrots, broccoli with a cob of sweet corn followed by Dreampot gluten sugar free creamed rice with yesterdays left over fruit loaf hmm yummilish)

River Red Gums
Walking was the main tasking today while taking photos of the scenery and tracking the route on my phone, works well.  Due to Misty’s health and age we can’t go too far or too fast, it’s funny at night due to her age she becomes easily disorientated coupled with her failing hearing and eyesight, at times she cannot hear when called, a light attached to her collar is the name of the game, like her dad oldtimers is setting in and the arthritis is taking over.

On the weather front became overcast with an insignificant amount of rain yesterday afternoon which was fine, however, the wind would not allow us to have a fire this has carried through today, the only real downside is to move inside a little earlier than we would like but that’s OK.


Keep the shiny side up
