Camping Spiders etc

Here are some photos from the rain shortened camping trip. It has been very wet in SE Australia, we have been lucky to get just a small portion of the rains. All the best to Queenslanders.

Hairy McClarey

 A sunbaking Dragon fly
 Look at this spider he has the best colour and shape. He kept hiding behind the grass seeds.
 These last two are your classic spider shapes.

South Melbourne Beach

At last a hot/dry day and we headed to the beach. It is only a bay side beach so no big breakers, still refreshing.

 For some it is a matter of use what you have, this man actually has a couple of fishing rods attached to this small inflatable.
 If you are swimming remember to swim between the flags.
Going to Tasmania? This is the very best way to travel, over night by boat.

Early Morning before the rain

The balloons were out this morning. They had to land on our park, the rain which is pouring down now was on the way.





You wouldn't want to be up in a balloon now, way too wet.

Some photos from the kids

 They seem to be able to find a different perspective.

Our visitor, full moon and wall pictures

Taz is our visitor this weekend and you couldn't ask for a better guest. He looks longingly into your eyes, he is gentle to touch and when he touches you. He loves to snuggle up for a cuddle. And he comes back to you in the park. Bonus

Polished

Sometimes I am asked to polish brass. Here is a letter plate I have just finished. It is in the Art Nouveau style.
