A Sunday Picnic

What better way to start the school holidays than with a picnic. We took a trip out to Mundaring Weir on Sunday to enjoy the bush and to remind ourselves that we still like each other (despite a long school term, hot weather and all the rest that goes with being a family).

It has been so long since Perth has had any decent rain, and the dam looked pitifully low. Let's hope we are in for a wet winter. 

I am about to start a very long break from my job (fourteen weeks...but who's counting!) I am hoping to relax more and blog more.

And have a look at what is going on behind the scenes while I'm trying to take a fancy picnic shot...

God love 'em!

Messing around with boats 2

Our part of the world celebrates the first day of Winter today. It's hard to describe the winter sun in Perth - it has a soft, almost romantic glow. There's nothing better than rugging up in winter woolies and yet still feeling the sun on your back. I'm sure the rain is not far away, but for now, if you are blessed with the sun on your back - celebrate!

Messing around with boats

Well, boatsheds actually. We took a drive out of Fremantle towards the city, along the river. That makes it sound much more romantic than it really was, but hey! Along the way we passed the Crawley Boatshed. Real pics later, but for now, the groovy Photoshop version.
