Bits of Randomness

This is the kind of stuff that makes up life and the kind of stuff that can be easy to forget. So here are just random bits of life for us in Small Town Ontario.

This is Art and Helen our downstairs neighbors. It is great to have such wonderful neighbors. If you can, we would love prayer for Art both for physical and spiritual health. He had pneumonia a few weeks ago and is still struggling very much.

Springs is coming, but flurries still hit every now and then.

Bert's self portraits. He has been thinking it is a great idea to take a photo at breakfast. This is the only one so far that will make to the web...

We had friends over last week and I used them for guinea pigs. We tried manicotti. It was good, but took getting every dish I owned dirty to make. :)

(disclaimer....the hair doesn't usually look like that)

My new favorite mug. Momma gave it to me for Christmas.

My editing desk where I spend oh so much time.....

Early Gardening Efforts

Last week I thought I would try something new....for me. I picked up some seeds (for plants that have to be started inside) and planted them in flats. Thankfully things watched, do grow. :)

A week and a half later. It looks like re-potting time. I have no idea what I ma doing, but it is kinda fun. The peppers were the late bloomers.

I think we have plenty of cabbage....

The Last of Aussie Trip

Blogger is being very naughty just now. It is underlining everything with color! I just realized that I hadn't posted the rest of the pics. So here they are. Tony going though old family pics with Bert. Not so impressed!

Overlooking Victor Harbor.

"Scanning" the negatives.

The dust free set up for the negatives.

Sunset over the jetty.

We took a little walk down the jetty with Bert's Mum and Dad the night before we left. It was a beautiful summer night.

We cleaned out the storeroom and workshop and then made a trip to the dump.

There was even Vegemite at MacDonald's!

The day before we left, Tony, Bert, and I went out to Belair National Park and did a little sketching. Well Bert and Tony did. I am not the artist of the group that is for sure!

At the airport just before we left.

The double decker flight we were on. Very comfy!
