Good Bye Summer??

Today was the last day of what probably has been one of the coolest wettest Summers l think l have spent in Australia! There is rumour that March and April will be warmer and drier than average but l will not be holding my breath on that one! Geoff and l spent the day doing not a great deal!!! A lazy start feeding animals in-between breakfast, reading and rain showers!
l did however get stuck into a very rewarding job that didn't take me long at all with a great result we are both very happy with!! l had noticed the other day that the big hedge that divides the front garden from the orchard was in fact three very distinct separate bushes all melded and meshed in together over the years.

With my constant snipping and pruning they have become quite bushy recently.....

But not enough for me to very quickly be able to hack a gorgeous secret garden arch way through two of them!!!

l just love it!!! l will take the three wrought iron loops l bought a few months ago to our local steel fabricator and get him to weld them into a pretty gate

With an old bench in place so l still have a place to sit in my favourite spot.....

 It looks like it has been there forever!

And a few dingly danglys of course!!!!

And a candlestick........got to have a candlestick.....! Very happy indeed!!!!

We topped off the day with a bit of Archery Competition! Geoff winning of course!!!! l am more often than not, battling to hit the hay bale let alone the target!

 Most of my shots go flying left or right of this!

Three of these ARE mine though!!

Good fun!
