a mini adventure

It has been 3 weeks now since I arrived back home.   It does take some adjusting to the "busy-ness" of life.  I have had many catch up with friends.  I have been very busy in the garden -mowing and weeding and the attempt at growing vegetables.  I was lucky the have help in the garden from friends.  I don't think some vegie seedlings like me.  Or is it the slugs or birds that eat them.

A friend asked me to camp at a family property last week end so Myrtle and I went off again but not very far this time and only for a night.  Considering it is November it was a very cold night.  It was lovely in the bush next to a beautiful little creek and cooking over the fire (thank you Laine and Carlie for your company).  We had dahl and rice and a few drinks here and there and choc coconut slice.  (I think my blogs always end up being about food).  And a funny half hour of trying to get a lid off the rice pot that had become stuck and many different attempts to get it off when finally done with the help of Elaine's relatives that had come past to look after the cows.  They managed the fulcrum/lever method  to eventually get the lid off.

So I intend to keep having adventures because life is one big adventure and very much what you make off it.
