Writers' Group social gathering....Perfect company, perfect weather...

Last Thursday our local writers' group gathered for a social meeting.
There was good company, great location, yummy food and perfect weather. A variety of readings and discussions made a wonderful way to spend the morning.
Thanks to Karolyn for hosting our gathering.
It is always great to get together for our meetings, but the winter sunshine and tranquil setting provided a little inspiration and motivation for everyone.

Autumn has arrived Down Under...

The weather is cool, the rain continues and the Australian evergreens hardly show a sign of impending winter. 

Still, the temperatures have dropped overnight to a low 14 deg C. That's around 57 def F. It is time to find jumpers, coats and warm blankets.


School holidays begin today. 

So thoughts of camping and travelling are forefront in our minds. 
The scent of woodsmoke and the taste of billy tea tempt us to brave the conditions... 

At this time of year snakes, ticks and biting insects are less prevalent. :) So it is perfect for camping.



Or, if sitting in comfort at home and  reading a good book 

or two...

Or perhaps writing...








Or just dreaming of sailing away to far off lands.





What are you doing this weekend?
