Early Spring

This year spring seems to have come a bit early. I know it could all change tomorrow but we had an early onset of winter so we can but hope. Anyway, things have been growing in the garden and some flowers are blooming.

This is a camellia which is past its best but looks nice on a sunny morning.
Yesterday we went for a quick walk up the back of Normandale and saw these weird looking animals. We thought they might be aliens trying to disguise themselves as sheep and failing.
At Dave and Jane's house the kitchen is taking shape. David has constructed the kitchen bench out of solid walnut - about 4 metres of tree truck, split in two giving a 100mm thick surface.
