It's time now for this blog to close...an end of a chapter, perhaps an era...
I loved the sea, the foreshore trails, the hinterland vineyards in rolling hills and the roads lined with the friendly greens of trees...
But it's time to lay some other memories to rest...and move on...
Come with me Temora Lifestyle
WHAT A GEM!

NOTE TO SELF: Keep this in mind as moving day draws closer...

Perhaps the scars may still be there, but there is no advantage, no 'new life' in letting those wounds fester... https://t.co/SUxk2ppR8T
PASSING THOUGHT: Feeling good re my 3rd vaccination (Pfizer) last Friday morning, mainly because I've minimal side-effects-a very achy, heavy arm. That's it. No headache. My first AZ jab was by far the worst=days of headaches, dizziness+general weirdness.

Maybe I paid the price.
It's moments like these that I can confidently claim Melbourne can be so beautiful... https://t.co/H2EXfh7wQL

PASSING THOUGHT: I always seem to be drawn close to uncluttered photos...apparently a simple subject dressed in a context of simple tones...Perhaps that is my need to feel the depths of an artist's spirit in a moment... https://t.co/RUEIg7l6TD

My Saturdays (+ drifting into Sundays) tend to be marked as impulse days...a major impulse or a barely noticeable impulse... Apart from Saturday morning supermarket shopping, nothing is tightly pre-planned and there are plenty of open spaces for 'something' or merely 'nothing'... https://t.co/hp79YqWO3R

After listening to the SBS Sunrise ceremony panel, I still believe the Australia Day date should stay. Changing means we're running away from history. Make it a tradition to have national sunrise ceremonies run by indigenous peoples. That's the beginning; that's our history. pic.twitter.com/aWAaaHukOD
