62 point turn



The Gang of Four has started to turn 62.  Corinne passed away last September but she passes back frequently in our thoughts and memories. Her birthday is 15 February and her daughters threw a party for her in Adelaide.  Of course we were all there.  Corinne's daughters are a triumph: pictures of poise and eloquence.  They chose their parents well.
Bron and I spent a lot of time with my Mum who delighted in taking us to the Walker's for a buffet lunch.  We mostly hovered around the seafood like circling gulls.  Heths could join us on Saturday so we took her to Mercato's - Mum was aghast she had never been there before.
It was a hot weekend.  On Saturday night we and half of Adelaide congregated at Glenelg. Fortunately for us Heths, as a local, knew secret places to park so we could stroll to the action.
 A beautiful evening to munch souvlaki and savour the sunset.
Our cunning path back to the car took us over the lock which I had no idea existed.
Great excitement cos the guy on the yacht looked like Richard Gere.
Meanwhile back in Tribes on the previous weekend, 
Steve struggles with a spot of macrame
while others make the most of the occasion.
This weekend I came home to find a beautiful surprise
and the long awaited windflowers in bloom
though, rather ungratefully, I would have preferred them to be white.  Jake and Sarah stayed the weekend with us.  Jake got the carving sandstone bug so we have now got our first birdbath.
We're not promising it will stay like this but it's a good start.  I'm thinking a carved foot bath or Roman bath would also be pleasant.

  1. Your pink flowers complement those chosen by daughters of poise and elegance in Corinne's honour. The spiral goes onward and outward.....
