Sunday, September 1st


Today is Wattle Day.

The floral emblem of Australia

Of course most of the wattle has come and gone by now.

Wattle Day is the official first day of Spring
in Oz.
This year, it is also Father's Day.
We don't have a dad, but we have 'river' dads:
Ron, John and Craig
(they're always good for a scratch or two.)
It's time for new life
warmer temperatures
and, perhaps
SECRETS?!!!
Full story next time.

  3. Hi hi hi! Ojo here! Wow, you practically live on another planet! It is still August 31 here! Also it is still summer, but almost fall. Also Father's Day was two months ago for us. Your place is very different from ours! And yet we're still friends! Isn't that amazing!
