reminiscing...strange car...

Reminiscing...
I'm a bit of a vintage/hot rod/odd car freak...
Not quite sure what category this one fits into...

Car sighted in Dromana Hub carpark this morning...
An older couple, both dressed in bright colours, stepped out of the car...

Rosebud carpark views...

Another day...Another early morning carpark... at Rosebud... pic.twitter.com/h5yxkcZLGP

I found this windscreen view of a Rosebud carpark rather cute...
It appeared that my car was cultivating a healthy bed of flowers...
And loved the bluest blue sky with pocket puffs of white cloud overhead... pic.twitter.com/YV1KHVRsGc

Surprised to find a small vaccination centre squeezed between carpark facing shops at Rosebud. pic.twitter.com/dERtO7JiFd

house inspection anxiety...

More house inspection waiting...This time in a drizzly Dromana Hub carpark...Supermarket shopping done...When rain eases, maybe I'll go further...More time spent well to sponge the anxiety... pic.twitter.com/bkfcRjOipK

Slowly the rain is easing and I can actually see pieces of the Dromana mural... pic.twitter.com/ygHsOJEMyC

Love the happy, bright mural colours on a grey and rainy Dromana day...(Yes...I am playing with features on my new phone...I'm learning...) pic.twitter.com/8u4YVSmWSg

just sitting in my car...

Just sitting in a Balnarring carpark waiting for a current nightmare to pass by...an auction inspection of my beloved rental (not mine)...and there will be more...One day this will be an old, pale dream...If only I owned a home for retirement...sighhhh...But I'll keep walking... pic.twitter.com/JmqgaCoR4D

Dromana mural extension...

This morning, I found that the large Dromana mural overlooking the Dromana Hub carpark had been extended further...Again, difficult to photograph, with small fence, plants and cars nearby, but this seemed to be the clearest angle... pic.twitter.com/IIdYvf9ISI

Loved the body language of the cyclists in the Dromana mural extension...

panic attacks...

Same here...My panic attacks are rising. A crowded carpark or supermarket will now turn me around for home. I don't/can't venture there. I try to pick my times when minimal numbers of people are around...

'beasties' in Dromana Hub carpark...

An interesting 'beastie' parked near my car in the Dromana Hub carpark today...
I couldn't quite work out what all the 'bits' were for... pic.twitter.com/0i6j7lGlI6

Another interesting 'beastie' parked right in front of my car in the Dromana carpark today...
This one had an employment advertisement on the windshield and a rather artistic reflection of clouds... pic.twitter.com/hO2TMIHWKi

catchy mowing name...

Love this catchy name for an essential gardening service...(parked at Dromana Hub carpark)...
It touches the deeper rhythms of life... pic.twitter.com/xlWAexw8jV

vintage in the carpark...

Still have a passion for vintage cars...

Dromana community masked up...

Today, deliberately, I decided to break routine, (early Saturday morning shopping),+braved Dromana's midday crowd...Will I still see a masked community? No difference...Right from the carpark...(This is the 1st person I saw)...We're all masked up+trying to keep our world safe... pic.twitter.com/tg7M1qunkn

kudos again to Dromana IGA...

🙏Dromana IGA - AGAIN! Loading my car with groceries today...Sudden downpour...Young IGA employee offered to take my empty trolley to trolley bay...Thanked him...Still pouring...backing my car out...Employee returned waving...(I stopped)...+gave my $1 back...
IGA =awesome...😀🙏

Dromana mural...

Dromana mural on Bendigo Bank wall facing the Dromana Hub carpark...
This is the best photo I've managed...Trying to capture the whole mural is not easy...Always cars parked by it + morning sun...If I try afternoons, the sun direction has improved, but there are more cars...Grrrr pic.twitter.com/xh1TrKo4tG

all masked up...

Yes...Very proud of my Dromana world on the Mornington Peninsula. Each time I do the supermarket shopping early, I would be hard-pressed to find anyone without a mask...That includes in the supermarket, the carpark, on the drive to+from (even people walking dogs are masked up)...

— Gemma Wiseman - on Bunurong land, Kulin Nation (@AuraGem) August 8, 2021

It was IGA Dromana I was referencing 🤣

— lockeddown (@lovingit5555) August 8, 2021

I must admit, I know nothing about the rest of the Mornington Peninsula. Most are outside my 5km limit. My comment, as I mentioned, only referenced my ongoing experience in one place - Dromana...and specifically Dromana IGA area...
