pagan pleasures

I vowed to  myself that I would swim on Easter Sunday morning cumquat may.  It is a day of joy and new beginnings, and particularly propitious when the moon is beautiful and daylight saving ends so the mornings are beautiful too.  It was a perfect day and followed a very warm day.  Locals reclaimed Spring Beach after tourists had made it 'like Bondi' the day before.

the beautiful Bailey waits patiently while her Mum swims, while Brodie takes a wider view
I had never seen sandbars at Spring Beach before.

Back home it occurred to me to show you the kitchen with washing machine moved in
and then I made an apple omelette for lunch.

Big day yesterday:  the demolition of the laundry began - firstly the removal of the see-through roofing sheets outside the kitchen window.
Things progressed, and diminished, from there.

This was the state of play at the end of the day.
Jill PD was a bit perplexed but we were thrilled with the light streaming in and the views of greenery from every window.

Today I noticed these acorns on the walkway through to Mrs O Henry's place for tai chi.
The Green Man looks out.

Here's The Flying Pig by late this afty.  Job done.
The view from the carport.
A girl can't help but contemplate a swimming pool.  Fish pond?  Sunken bath?
The pig flies on.

  1. Oh such possibilities. Is this going to be the deck???? I am sure when you get back from Adelaide it will all be completed - to Steve's plan! He he. I can see a timber deck and pergola with a vine growing over it and tubs of plants - an outdoor room you can see from inside the house. Is that the plan? The washing machine in the kitchen looks fine - almost a laundry without really impinging on the kitchen itself. And doesn't the beach look good. We are still adjusting to the end of daylight saving - waking up far too early with far too much light. But I do love the utter stillness of an autumn morning. FF
