The heat seemed to go on for ever. Finally if not standing/sitting in the sun one can now wear a sleeve.
This morning was down to 13 deg - but by Friday the middle of the day will be up to 26 deg. The wind has a chill so no swimming this week even though the tide is right.
We have been practicing our Tai Chi almost every day and have improved greatly. Mel comes a couple of times a week to practice with us.

Little red hen |
Our last chicken has arrived. The 'old' girls have given her a hard time. Talk about bullies. But finally things have improved but they keep her in her place - end of the line. She is frightened of us as well so hopefully her life will improve over the next month or so.

Chair fabric |

Couch fabric |
Jonnie did a great job on the cushion covers - we just love these Hawaiian prints. Even the bamboo plant behind matches the print in the fabric.

Rogue chicken |
This feeder is for the wild birds. We let the chickens out every evening for 30 minutes or so.- didn't take long for them to find the food.

The Corella's found the seed |

Date and ginger cake |
I made the bread and the rest of the produce is from the garden. Pawpaw, pomegranate, passionfruit and eggs.
 |
New driveway |
Jonnie and Brian built this driveway from material left at the council area. I did help a little but my leg gave way so was only able to do a few loads of gravel and road base.

Under the mango tree |
The mango tree and the area underneath has never looked better. Beautiful and lush.
 |
The Jacaranda tree |
This tree came from Danise's garden in Kedron. It was small enough for me to bring over on the ferry as a potted plant.

Prawners |
We love watching the activity of the prawners.
