Cows! by Sue Way

One of our dog walks is to a country park near us. It is a former landfill site that has been restored as a country park and includes meadow and pasture areas established for wildlife, with stunning views of the creek. The dogs love it when the cows are grazing near the fence and always have to say hello. The cows completely ignore them lol

I Sea no Ships by Janice McFarlane

Well we are most definitely having a hot dry spell again. For me staying indoors is preferable, my two grandsons love the outdoors. On a visit up to the North East with my daughter and son-in-law to see their other grandparents for the week the opportunity for them to visit the seaside is a must for them as they dont get to see it that often, so this week it has been the perfect weather for them to have done fun in the sea and go searching for crabs amongst the rock pools and digging in the sand. Its such a novelty for them. After living most of my life on the North East coast, you dont make the effort to appreciate it. Since moving to the East Midlands 10 years ago I sometimes do miss the coast, but have enjoyed the photos of the children having so much fun beside the sea.

Birthday Girl by Vicki Avcin

It was my daughters birthday this week, so last Saturday her partner put on a family party at the Shorncliffe Pier. It was also the first time I met her partners parents after 7 years. As we were in Hervey Bay and partners parents were in Mt Isa, it had been a bit hard to all get together. We also met daughters partners sister and her little girl. Originally it was planned that we go to the Breakfast Creek Hotel, but with covid still doing the rounds it was decided that outdoors would be a better option. Our menu was a few pizzas and to finish off was a delicious cheese cake made by her partners mother. It was a gorgeous day made even better because there was absolutely no breeze which being by the water there normally is a sea breeze. Was a wonderful afternoon/evening and I had to snap a photo of the pier with the afternoon sun on it.
