Playing with the magnets before school ...the best toy ever...


Some basketball too before school....


Ethan is so keen...


Will loves it too...



Some friends passing by on their way to school ...


...Pete, Mandy, Graeme and I enjoyed a fabulous lunch at Wild Hop Brewing Company ...to celebrate Pete's birthday in January and Graeme's in March. Great food and a very relaxed atmosphere in the heart of the bush.


Close to Wild Hop...this giant flowering Marri tree....it was enormous.


They are flowering everywhere down here....




Owls in the tree in the school yard.....


Peter and Flynn on their way to Ethan's classroom after Kindy pickup.

I am in the process of reducing the number of photos I have and putting them in some sort of chronological order...a big job but I am enjoying it...brings back many wonderful memories ...


This is the book I am currently reading.  I think it is  absolutely fabulous...so well written...a wonderful story......I have read two of Charlotte's other books and they too were very enjoyable. She is an Australian writer.

There was only the two of us at the beach this morning...Pauline and me....we were so excited to see a dolphin only a couple of metres from the shore...we have never seen a dolphin at City Beach before. In the photo are some swimmers ...I can't imagine how excited they must have been. I didn't have my phone with me but a sweet young lady that I chatted to sent me a video after I gave her my phone number.

South Trigg beach....I don't think I have ever been to this beach before....I was so amazed at the number of surfers in the water....


A beautiful Sunday morning ....the water was clear and cool.....Pete and I took a coffee to enjoy after our swim...



While we were at Brighton Beach Todd was swimming the " Busselton Jetty Swim"...This is a photo taken from a video clip that Tash put on Instagram of Todd completing his swim...and his boys and Tash were there to see it...I'm so proud of my son-in-law, well done Todd.

This week the Australian Amateur Championship  is being played at our golf course. Other clubs welcomed WAGC members to play at their courses....today I played at Mt Lawley Golf Club. I just noticed so many of their grass trees...


The bunkers had this amazing long grass growing behind them...makes the course a little more difficult.


How beautiful is this tree! It is a lot bigger that it looks in the photo...


I played with Janet, Mardi and Angie ...we all struggled with the greens as they were soooo slow compared to ours ....but we had a fun time and enjoyed the course...in the glorious sunshine with a little sea breeze. After the game we sat with four other members from WAGC and had lunch and a few laughs.
