Yucky weather is prompting a philosophical train of thought....
One or two posts would not support this boat - it took many posts of different shapes n sizes - even though some did not appear to be doing much! A lesson for life??! Also thought it made an attractive image, so thought I'd share :)

Wow - have we got a change in the weather!! Having been lulled into a false sense of security with a wonderful autumn - today its galeforce hail stones and other unmentionable things. The Alpacas are NOT happy - neither is anyone else much....
For Dling only.......... Spent time at the Riverton Races today - some interesting spots....
Not sure if these horses were sure what they were supposed to be doing... Ha ha! "Remaining" - my entry to this exhibition (- sold - I'm pleased to say!)
Image was one I created in Wanaka days, but presentation was inspired by thinking about the Christchurch fires..... and what might remain after a house fire.... Spent a couple of hours trying to capture these delightful characters in flight - totally frusting!! My reaction times are way to slow :( However, I have managed to see that at take off they jump in the air before engaging wings. At times, they look just like a jump-jet - though way prettier :)
Found this cute tiny snail on a raspberry from our garden; yes, I know, I wont find it so cute when its full grown and helping to decimate the veggies - but still...
I've got an idea - why don't we move Christmas to end January? Then S hemisphere school holidays might see some summer - and N hemisphere folks might get a 'white Christmas' ?!
