Man, what a great day of handcrafting at Maple Hoo! We did machine piecing and fabric cutting and Pookie timed how long it takes her to finish hand-piecing the strips from the 81-patches in Henrik Jane (3 hours, 1 minute, with dawdling) and I finished appliqueing the typewriter on the front of Pookie's iPad case. In the evening we had delicious pizza and wine and homemade bread made into homemade garlic bread with homegrown garlic, and we planned big plans for this year's garden, and generally just felt the warm, happy glow of newer, better life. In short, it was a good time.

The wind and sun were in my face. :o

The top (W) of the Proviso hump yard. The aftermath of the 1979 blizzard. That weekend 20" of snow fell atop a 7" base left over from a New Years Eve blizzard.
Isaac made this instrument out of legos as a school project. You take the long thin yellow peice and hit the projecting red peices. Eack one makes a different tone. I think he got the idea from this: www.flickr.com/photos/meaghancourtney/5279821259/
Summer sunset over Gawler, South Australia.
After Sunday dinner at Mum's, I went for a drive with my brother Joshua. We found a nice spot down near Gawler to watch the sun set, wasn't much of a sunset, actually wasn't that much of a great spot for taking photos.
But as always, it's what you as a photography make of the situation! Grovelling on my hands and knees by the roadside and shooting through a fence, I got a few shots of the sun setting behind oat grass.
I love lip balms and can't resist buying new ones. This is the nicest I've had since the Badger Balm ginger one though.
Day 14.
One of the best things I received this Christmas. Old Betamax tapes filled with childhood home videos that my Dad found. Hope I can find a place to convert them! Otherwise, the 50 lb. Betamax player is getting hauled up from Mom's house.
I know the Holidays are over, but I would so love to have a decorated Christmas tree around all year, if only for the warm glow the tiny lights reflect off everything.
