Monday
the view from our back door this morning It’s another beautiful day in the Huon Valley. I love waking up to clear blue skies and bright sunlight that shines on the dew on my garden, making it glisten. I find it beautiful when the mist sits in the valley like this and the sunrise casts […]
Saturday
Good morning! It is. Good morning indeed. I do not get tired of this view because it is ever-changing. When the bushfires were blazing, these hills were drenched in thick smoke. Sometimes it is cloudy or rainy or sunny, and each day this is a beautiful sight to wake up to. We have had some […]
Beautiful morning
It is a beautiful morning in the valley. I woke early and went to make cups of tea, and I was greeted by this beautiful view! I love it when the fog trails at the base of the mountains like this. The sky is clear and the sun is rising, spreading golden rays everywhere. Unfortunately […]

Kitchen Surprise!

At first I was thinking how red the clouds were, for there were some pretty clouds and the sunlight was playing on them nicely. However, […]
What a summer!
I am sad that today is the last day of summer. I do not want the days to be shorter. I do not want the days to be cooler. I don’t want rain or hail or snow and I don’t want frosts (they’ll come soon). I like wearing skirts and shorts and sandals. I like […]
