From Our Yard

Here's a few photos taken where we live.

The 2 photos of the kookaburras were taken over our back fence where they were having a break on neighbour Sandy's TV aerial.

Managed to get them so close up thanks to my new camera which I am loving.



Took this photo on dusk from my driveway.

Loved the storminess of the cloud band sitting in front of the setting sun.
 I am experimenting with night shots of Wodonga from my street.

These are my early attempts, stay tuned for better efforts - I am determined to master this!

Late July and August photos

 Well here I am again catching up for my tardiness on posting photos.

This one was taken in June when we visited Steve after I had my hand done.

I wasn't too happy having a half cast on it for a couple of weeks.

Steve was at Tallangatta hospital till I could look after him again so we went out whenever we could to visit.









This photo of Chris (who came to look after me) and I was taken the day we took time out and went to the beauty parlour for the day. 

Had a great time .

This is the before photo. 

We didn't take an after photo we were too busy looking beautiful. Lol.








Back out at Tallangatta visiting Steve  I took this photo in the dining room where we spent most of our time ... it had a lovely outlook onto the water.

As usual Steve was enjoying a coffee.





Not the best photo of Steve and Chris but was all I got.


 


This photo was taken in Mid August when we went to the church to see Tyson and Shelley get married.

It was a beautiful wedding but a freezing cold day.

We waited till we got home and got Bec to take this photo of us.

June in Wodonga


A BIT OF FUN

Well this is a very late June post but started it way back then.
Didn't take many photos in June  as I had my hand operated on but did manage these few of kitchen adventures.

I bought a pasta maker which is fun and makes a lovely pasta.... didn't think about the fact that I couldn't knead dough for a few months afterwards. Anyway we'll be back into home made pasta now my hand has healed.

Every now and then Steve comes up with a "brilliant" food idea based on what he's been watching on TV. 
He was very insistent that i bake Gary Meaghan's Quiche Lorraine after they cooked it on Masterchef.  
Had to go and buy a dish to do it in but even that didn't stop him insisting on it. 


It probably would have failed in the presentation stakes but it was certainly great in the eating stakes.
