Back to my place..

Looking down my little valley from the back door step this morning..

 

We've had very little rain as usual through Winter, but some heavy fogs gather here, overnight into dawn.

 

This moisture must be enough to kick-start the flowering trees, which are now putting on their Springtime show all around town.

 

These purple ones are Jacarandas, very hardy and native to South Africa, they do really well here, and I reckon we've adopted them as our own a long time ago, as they appear in some early aussie paintings..

 

They're so popular and there's many very old ones here.

One of my favourite early australian paintings:

Once again, thank you for all your support and kind comments, and will do my best to get around to everyone as soon as I can.
