appeal of country life...

PASSING THOUGHT: I had a fear of high rises, major sport+concert events, pubs, tourist hot spots+summer-crowded beaches...But sometimes I braved one or two (mainly the last 2). That was pre-covid. Now, I don't even consider one, opting for ex-city, country life space very soon...

comparing temperatures...

PASSING THOUGHT: I have this crazy habit of comparing place temperatures...my son's+daughter's+mine...
In winter, I hope my Dromana's not the coldest.
6;30am
Dromana, Vic - 5°C
Temora, Riverina, NSW - 6°C (usually slightly colder)
Maslin Beach, SA - 8°C (always slightly warmer)

don't regret people...

I've had this thought several times in my life...
Now may be a good time for that thought to re-surface for a little airing... https://t.co/nGXIgdp5SP

seahorse and a diver's watch...

Precious moment...a seahorse and a diver's watch...
Who knows if the seahorse can see its reflection...
Does it really matter?
All that matters is that a sea horse + hairy arm + watch had a chance, magical encounter... https://t.co/YuiTJWzEK6
