Oh, the joy ...
... of a perfect Springlike day in Winter. With signs of Spring all around and a magnificently sunny day, warm enough to discard the jumper (I know you don't believe me Tanya in Townsville) and get to work in the garden. The soil is damp and gorgeous, perrenials are sending up new shoots, shrubs and trees are budding and some of the annuals and bulbs are flowering. The promise of Spring is everywhere on a day like this.
My husband and I are both retired and have lived in Canberra (Australia's Capital) for 35 years after moving from Victoria. We both love gardening and travel; I also love photography (you'd never guess), sewing & crafts, and writing. We have 4 wonderful adult children - 3 girls, 1 boy, and 6 adorable grandchildren.
