Weekend Reflections - Just one of our dams . . .


The dam in the park the Prof planted almost 20 years ago
at this time of year reflects mainly tones of green,


with our resident grebes looking like they are having a single
sculls race.

SkyWatch ~ 47 A Spring Afternoon

ENLARGE and ENJOY!



Last Sunday we had occasion to go to the Barossa Valley,
one of our premier wine growing districts. No, we did not
go for the wines but rather to a book launch.




The day was blustery to say the least, at times we
could not hear the speaker with microphone for the
wind gusts buffeting the building.



The air was crisp and clear and the sky above as blue
as blue with white clouds chasing each other about,
just for the fun of it. The countryside was lush and green,
a balm to the eyes after the long dry and sere summer
and autumn.



A perfect day for a drive in the
country until we stopped at the top of Trial Hill
and looked back towards the valley we had left and
saw these dark an ominous clouds chasing us home.



Unfortunately it was all play and no pay and not a drop
of rain did we get.

Many more skies will appear when you click on the Logo.

Thanks to Klaus and the SkyWatch team we can all join
with to this great fun meme.

SkyWatch *20 Yet Another SUNRISE

Please click on all or any to enlarge!

The skies have been mediocre this week so here
is the last golden sunrise we have enjoyed.



It rose in streaks of molten gold sweeping the sky



Barely shedding a little light further up in the sky



as the sun burst forth in a glowing blaze
my eyeballs aching, my head in a daze
I hid behind these sheltering trees
and give you the next shot to give your eyes ease
of a clear and sparklingly bright spring sky
with green trees gently kissed by a breeze.



The Logo unlocks skies around the world, enjoy!

To Klaus and our industrious SkyWarch team,
as ever my thanks for providing this meme.
