Miles from nowhere

The things you see!! It was a strange day. Unusually for this area, there was a build up of clouds, a promise of rain and a threat of flooding. It had been very dry. We were driving around on roads that would be impassable after even a light sprinkle of rain, taking photos of the wildlife. Very few people live out here.

The sky was different. There was an air of expectation. Suddenly we stopped, and backed up, to take this photo. What was that hanging in the dead tree?

I’m still not sure.

Looking back and forward

What a beautiful Easter break here

Warm sunshine and balmy evenings

I often feel sad when I feel the soft breeze on such a day

Exactly the same feeling as the day my mother passed away

At this time, that seems like only yesterday.

Feeling the loss

Feeling fragile myself, but comforted by the thought that this might well be my son on his way south to visit.
