God’s Own Country

Country Boy is quite the photographer. We both love to take the camera out for a spin, but our styles are quite different. I can always immediately tell which of us took the photo, just by looking at them. I focus on details, while CB looks for the bigger picture – which is kind of like our personalities too.

On Sunday, CB took the camera out for a walk after dinner to catch the sun setting (our fave time of day at this time of year!), and when he came back, I was excited to see what he had captured. I love the movement of the grasses in the wind, and the big sky behind. Truly, we live in God’s own country!

    I like seeing bits of the detail too as it adds so much to the story, but then with a scene like the above pics its landscape shots all the way.

The perfect way to end a long winter weekend: toge The perfect way to end a long winter weekend: together, cooking damper around the remains of the bonfire.
It’s been a tough few weeks on the farm. We got It’s been a tough few weeks on the farm. We got through shearing without a hitch (thankfully 🙏) but we’ve had a run of the flu followed by Covid run through the family since then. The kids and I have tested positive (this is my second time getting it 🦠) though so far C has managed to avoid it. There has been a lot of lying on the couch feeling pretty ordinary. Han had to reschedule her driving test for a 4th time due to Covid, which is disappointing for her because she wants her freedom and for us because it would be so much more convenient if she could drive herself places. Just to add in to the mix, our hot water system has chosen now as a good time to die so we’re on cold showers until we’re all out of iso. This is not meant to be a whinging post but sometimes life just sucks a bit and it’s good to be real. Fortunately, the sight of the fire going with a stack of wood next to it cheers us up. Things will improve soon. Onwards we go…

After the craziness of last term it was the break we all needed. It’s back to school for me tomorrow, and the kids are back on Wednesday. Shearing starts soon and so it’s all systems go over the next few weeks.

Then we had apple crumble for dessert last night. Between the orchard and the vegetable garden this time of year is always super busy as we deal with all the harvest. No so busy though, that I can’t grab the camera and snap a few pics.
