This is really two pictures put together. When I realized that both had the subject centerized and the backgrounds were similar, I thought I'ld try it out.
I love the weight to this bucket...it is nice and lofty, yet still lightweight. Perfect for toting from room to room.
lots of jellyfish at our usual beach lately -- Margaret got stung by one on the ankle, but quickly recovered; these belong to a girl who passed by us as she was hunting for more to scoop into her bucket
Folk received this for Christmas from us this year. A bucket of home made peppermint flavoured coal. (And a bag of russian fudge flavoured 'soft coal' not shown here).

How volunteers would put out fires in the late 1800's in a California mining town, by filling buckets with water and dousing the flames.
Around the Croydon Region many gold field were laid claim to. The Golden Gate; the largest, was taken up by Joseph Hardy and James Fulton on 12th April 1886, it held a twenty-five acre lease, and its share capital was £100,000 in 400,000 five shilling shares, and in its first seven years of operation up to 1898 had crushed 9,215 tons of stone for 35,899 ounces of gold. It had paid during this period £40,000 in dividends. This field in 1892 had a population of 1,400 and it was five miles distant from Croydon, with ten hotels and four stores.
Some of the colourful names of other fields are:- Croydon King, Mountain Maid, Homeward Bound, Twelve Mile, Table Top, Golden Valley, Caledonia, Highland Mary, Lady Mary, Iguana, just to name a few.
The boom year was 1887, when the population rose
to 6,500, it settled down to figures fluctuating between 3,000 and 4,000 in subsequent years until the decline set in. In the beginning building was carried out rapidly. The most successful material for building was galvanised iron, because it was generally light and easy to transport, and a sheet of iron was placed in position more quickly than a number of boards. Another factor was that it was safe from white ants which are a pest everywhere in the Gulf country. Houses, banks, hotels, schools and other public buildings were constructed of galvanised iron, and the architecture presented a dull picture to the visitor. The buildings could be cold in winter, and they were veritable ovens in the summer time, which lasted ten months of the year.

Had a lovely afternoon with Oliver on Sunday, lots of playing in the garden in the sunshine, running around with a bucket on his head and enjoying our first 99 flake's of the year.
It works out quite well for us. Oliver does not like ice cream but loves the cones. I love ice cream but do not much care for the cones. So I get Oliver's ice-cream and Oliver gets my cone. Everyone's a winner.
