Day 31 The Indian in the Cupboard

A tribute to my wife, this is the first piece she made for me from scratch. She brought the greenware cleaned it and fired into what is called the bisque stage then cleaned again then painted and fired again. During the second firing to set the pain they can and quite often explode but the ones that don't look brilliant they have so much life in them.

Day 30 having a Bad Day

My wife is sick, our youngest had her immunisations on Tuesday and teething, the twin boys had there immunisations on Wednesday and Levi is having a reaction to his and for some reason today he put a trampoline spring in his mouth and then hooked a chain on the other end I guess he wasn't expecting Shashonee to pull his chain. Nothing to serious but he is very sore at the moment sort of like the bear dressed as a frog with his head a little further away from where it should be.

Day 29 Tha Huntsman

This is a lovely spider we call the huntsman and he does live up to his name as he hunts a lot of other spiders and eats them mmm yummy, do you wanna give him a pat? He's nice and soft and just a little fuzzy. He'll give you that tingly feeling when he walks over your foot or around the back of your neck. They travel really well in an envelope if any of you want one, I could send a baby one and then you can train him to do tricks, like scare the crap out of your friends. :D

Day 28 Going Home

A typical day on a typical outback road chipped windscreens and all. We have two chips in our screen and it goes in tomorrow to have them filled as the new one that we got on the way into town is right in the drivers view. My wife always wants to turn around and chase the guy and make them pay for the windscreen but it just wouldn't work and we ave a saying here that suites this situation quite well. "Shit Happens"

Day 27 Cheyenne's first day at school

A very big day for Cheyenne she wanted to start last year but was born late in the year so she had to wait :( But she is there now and had a wonderful day. :)

Day 26 The Kookaburra

Well today is Australia day so what better to shot then a Kookaburra I just wish I could have gotten a little closer to her. Yes it's a girl the males are more colourful and more trusting. :)

I thought you might like to see where I live, our land is 3oo meters across and 1200 meters front to back. This is the view out of my bedroom window but just a bit further away from the house. These shots are straight from the camera they are as untouched as the land. There is a lot of wild life out there some are nice and fluffy some are all slimy and deadly and then you have the things you can't see but most of those just hurt like hell. We have an ant here that would be almost an inch long about 2.5 cm and when they bite you will know all about it. As an Aussie I walk in thongs through this bush as comfortably as you do through the streets of your town neither of us worried if the next step will be our last. :)

Day 25 Leaning Tower of Light
