Saturday at Home

I was awake for the sunrise again this morning. I love being awake early. And going for my walk early.
Tthere is a new fence down the road, and here is the first mulberry almost ready to pick and eat...as I go past the tree down the park. A huge tree hanging over someone's fence..always heaps of mulberries for everyone!

It is ekka time, and I missed it. I miss the strawberry icecream, so I bought some pink icecream to go with my strawberries! Ymmm..

I was sorry the photo of my kookaburra on top of a pole was no good yesterday, so I was delighted to discover this dear kooka who came and sat on the back patio just outside the kitchen window, as I was on the phone this morning!

Abbey welcomed me back from my walk this morning!

and so did the orchids...I can never resist taking another photo!
Went out to the shops for a bit, looking for computer hardware. Found an extremely helpful young man at Dick Smith, who told me about a wholesale place where I could get things much cheaper. Jo is going to check it out (online) for me and tell me if it is any good! I reckon Dick Smith will get rid of him shortly?

Looks like there are lots of people out for the riverfire festival tonight. I watched it on tv, and so I knew when the RAAF jets would be screaming past here. Fortunately they didn't make as much noise in this part of the woods as usual...maybe they will come back later! Maybe it was cos it is a cloudy night tonight, or maybe they are not dumping as much fuel as usual...economy measures?

Abbey and I took a stroll along the footpath to see the fireworks in the real just a moment ago..(sorry Jill, if you have been waiting for me to have my online scrabble turn, now you know where I have been)...there was a pretty good view of the fireworks over the empty house lot over the road! It is very good of the city to welcome me back home so spectactularly!
Hope you had a good day and that you enjoy the rest of the weekend too!
