weekend update

 went to Spotty on Friday...

left with a few purchases...

in my defense 2/3rds of these are for swaps during the year, all sorted except 2 months

dinner Friday night, Beef Stir Fry...quick easy and delicious!

 my orange flowering gum that my sister gave me when I turned 40 is blooming and is totally loaded with buds, there are only a few out but in a few days it is going to be stunning!

 native orchid I found way down the back when we were slashing on Saturday

it survived!

 looking back up towards the house...

all nice and clear again

 Sunday bought rain, thunder, lightning and a bit of hail...

my garden is loving it and all our tanks are full!
