Another Walk and Everlasting Daisies

It's been a full-on week, a quick 40-hour trip to Sydney with my mum to escort her part of the way home to Canada, followed by a full week of work. J is in all all-weekend tennis tournament while fighting a cold and squeezing in a community Amazing Race activity.  And C2 is winging is way to the USA for a fast 5 days,  In between we caught up with friends Friday and Saturday night, phew.

It's through these busy times that I am rejuvenated by solitary runs and walks (time for a new dog?) through this spectacular place that I now call home.  The following are a few more images of a moment of calm in the middle of a busy week.
 
A Balga or Grasstree
While their mistress was doing yoga on the jetty, these two Labradors were performing the very clever game of "don't move in case a fish swims by".  I sat on the edge of a tinnie for 15 minutes to see if they would move - they didn't!


This woman paddled by in her kayak with her dog running on the footpath beside the river, quite distressed.  The dog finally found a path down the steep river wall about half a kilometre ahead.


Where she joined her mistress and refused to return up the path, in spite of both or our efforts.  So there was only one thing to do...


Which was of course to load the intrasigent pooch into the Kayak and carry-on...




I carried on as well through a field of Everlasting Daisies which I believe are the state flower of Western Australia.



Everlastings AND Wattle in full bloom

What a color, right?
These are my mum's favorite Australia flower: the aptly dubbed "Kangaroo Paw" which is in riotous bloom at the moment.



A single rose growing spectacularly in my front garden
Find your place of peace.

Hello everyone this is a great testimony that I must share. I never believed in spells or magic not until I met Dr. Ogala My life is back !!! After 3 years of broken marriage, my wife left me with two children. I almost killed myself, I was emotionally broken down. Thanks to a spell caster called Dr Ogala who I met online. One faithful day while browsing the internet, I came across a lot of testimonials about this particular caster. Some people testified that he brought their ex-lover back, others testified that he restored their uterus, cured cancer and other diseases, others testified that he could cast a spell to stop the divorce. I also come across one particular testimony, it was from a woman called Sonia, she testified about how he brought her Ex lover back in less than 2 days, and at the end of her testimony she dropped his email (Drogalad02@gmail.com). After reading all of these testimonials, I decided to give it a try. I contacted him via his email and explained my problem to him. In just 48 hours, my wife came back to see me. We have solved our problems, and we are even happier than before, Dr Ogala is truly a talented man, I am not going to stop posting it because he is a wonderful man. If you have a problem and are looking for a real solution and a real spell caster to solve all your problems for you, contact Dr Ogala with his powers He can turn your dreams into reality.
