Fascination

We finally have a working heater, and the two younger children are utterly fascinated by it. They like to sit in front of it and watch the flames.

Lake Annand

Lake Annand is part of East Creek, which runs through the eastern part of Toowoomba, before joining up with West Creek to form Gowrie Creek, which flows into the Condamine River, which will forms part of the Murray-Darling Basin.
Lake Annand Park is a rather pretty park, with trees, bridges, play areas, and an actual barbeque area (complete with covered eating area - yay!) I'm going to try having a picnic there, when the weather is less cold/windy/wet.

Tent City

Yep. They decided to make a tent. Make that A Tent!

Rose Red and Snow White

Growing up, I had a book of fairy tales from various European countries. There were some very interesting ones, including one which featured a grown son being fed by flesh cut from an underarm (huh?) Also included was the tale of Rose Red and Snow White and the Bear. I thought of the girls when I saw the bushes across the road. I think they are camellias, but I haven't gone to take a look.
