Good morning.
A sunny day after some rain overnight .. a bit cooler.
A sign of the times for sure with the way houses are so close to each other, on pocket sized sections. It took a LOT of getting used to living in town, even though we are in an old, established area with houses a good few metres away from each other. Lol KM, that close would be a sure sign for me to get back into the country!
Old gardens are the best ... I used to see and enjoy quite a few belonging to a rural Garden Group. For a short while we lived next to an abandoned old estate with the trees and shrubs reaching for the sky ... probably about half an acre. I occasionally used to explore with my JR (though I was a bit nervous at what she might flush out). The garden was apparently established by a renowned camelia enthusiast ... the tallest ones I've ever seen and some beauties amongst them. There were quite a few old treasures still flowering in the garden. The equally neglected house still had furniture in it and was unlocked ... quite eerie and easy to imagine ghosts living there, lol! Probably just as well I had limited info about the history of the place.
No plan for the day ... it looks as if the weeds have loved the rain so had better tackle them at some stage.
Enjoy the day all.
