Not mine!

I didn't take this photo, neither is it from my camera. My youngest got a camera for her birthday from her grandparents, and this is one that she took. I saw it as I was uploading her photos, and liked it, so here it is. If anyone is interested, it is one of those Disney lable cameras - VGA camera only.

Merry, Merry King of the Bush is He!

You can only get so close, and only zoom so far on a camera like mine. Still, you can get something reasonable, while not brilliant, with persistance.

Typical Aussie Bowler

I think I blogged about this elsewhere some months ago, but I thought about it tonight, and just wanted to share it with the world (or the one or two of you who happend to fall onto this site ;) ) This is my brother, a proud, and rather typical Aussie. He has just bowled to one of my children (who received a cricket set for Christmas) and did so while holding his stubby. He's wearing thongs - how Aussie is that! You'll have to excuse his white skin - he lives in Melbourne, not exactly the sunshine capital of the country, and has to dress reasonably nicely for his job.

Flying Fox

Taken on the same day, and at the same place as the header photo. The blue thing had been wrapped around her head as a blindfold, because launching out into space, blindfolded, is just the bees' knees, don't you know! And without shoes!

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!
