It's now winter so we are wearing our "Spring jackets." It never got cold enough to actually wear our winter jackets from Canada. We did wear mitts and scarves though. No point wearing boots either - no snow. It did have a bit of flurries at one point this winter in Canberra. But not enough to even throw snowballs. If you want snow, you have to drive 3.5 hours to the Snowy Mountains which have a snow season of about 6 weeks if you are lucky.

The trees in Canberra are mostly exotics so there were plenty of colours this autumn (no one says "fall" here). The oaks were gorgeously golden, the maples marvellously red, the evergreens ever green. What was funny was there were still flowering shrubs the entire season. Bright pink flowers in the middle of winter! That's what I like!
Playing at the Arboretum again. A glorious sunny day. We laid back on the grass and watched the kites in the sky. Next time we'll have to bring our own to fly.
Play dates with friends.
Home life - eating, playing, working, sleeping. Daily ups and downs, grumps and smiles. Glad to be alive and together!
