Resting in the sun

Today found me sitting out under the verandah with a sleeping Billy, enjoying the sunshine on a clear winter day. We repotted some plants from the garden; silverbeet, spinach, parsley, and a new planting of snow peas . They're all in pots on the patio. We managed to wash the whole basket of washing this evening; Matilda was a great help in this job.
The children spent a lot of time down at the spring today. They discovered life in the pool, and tried to catch whatever it was. Maybe shrimp or some guppies. They've begun yet another shack using logs and other naturally occuring debris. I'm sure lots of talking gets done, and probably a little bit of scheming, too.
I kept getting asked if I needed to go to the dunny. After the 4th ask I got a little suspicious. Then I realised the children had rearranged the solar lighting to light the path to the dunny. Very considerate!
We are just about to sit down to dinner, yes, a little late, but better a little late than never! The jobs are done, the place is reasonably respectable and everyone is weary once again.
Wallaby Scrub is truly the best place on earth!
