New Zealand
It's taken me all this time to do a post about it, but I thought I'd share with you our visit to the Mt Benger A&P Show on 17 February this year. It was a very late decision to attend prompted by me spotting a highway sign advertising the date. Nigel phoned them and they... Continue Reading →
Fabulously creative Rebecca Baumann (Australia) has a great installation at Dunedin Public Art Gallery, New Zealand. Big, bright and colourful! We wandered in on 16 July. Most pics taken by Nigel. I really love her work and have posted about other installations. For those... https://exploringcolour.wordpress.com/?s=Rebecca+Baumann Light Interference (Refracted Field).

A weathered but wonderful playground at Black Gully Reserve, near Tapanui. West Otago. New Zealand. 28 December.
Birthday fun yesterday.. a trek through thyme-strewn Bannockburn sluicings to Stewart Town where the old stone house also boasts an old orchard +lilac bush! The first pic also has California poppies.

I have to admit though, the bright yellow flowers sure brighten up a winters day. And I took a pic of Nigel on a lower part of the track as... Continue Reading →
Forum Cafe is in the town of Milton, a busy working town with the main highway running through the centre of town and lots of big trucks travelling through. Happily Milton has a lovely cafe with friendly staff and walls covered in bright murals. We've taken to breaking our journey there when going to Dunedin... Continue Reading →
On 25 March we were heading home from Dunedin and I asked Nigel to pull in to an easily missed carpark at the bottom of this hill, then we walked up a way to a Beach Access walkway that I've seen many times before when we drove up the hill. It looks very inviting because... Continue Reading →
