New Beginnings, Packing up, Saying Hello & Goodbye

Packing up boxes and finding Old dear friends along the way..........

Exploring new surroundings......



Finding the odd surprise?




Taking in all the new colours and beauty



Moving along to the New Next Chapter that is just starting

Do as the locals do and enjoy the amazing Sunsets that the Territory beaches enjoy

Hello to all of you.
Here we are now settled back into Darwin, Northern Territory.
4 Years living down south in South Australia have passed,
it is amazing we are back here in this lovely tropical spot.
I never expected to miss the place and lifestyle as much as we
both have.  So we are now turning into recycled locals,
Territorians Once Again!
But like everyone visiting and locals alike we are enjoying
all the beautiful sights and opportunities to be out and about while
the weather is so fantastic.
No more Winter Blues for this little Chickie!
We  have been learning our new jobs in the last two weeks.
Also catching up with friends along the way.
Already we have had a visit from our Son and his sweet partner.
One of our Daughters lives here so we have family close by.
Thanks for all the well wishes sent to me.
It is great to be able to share such an exciting time with you.
Enjoy the new photos of the area.
Have a great week and a great new Month.
August the month of Leo Birthdays.
Best Wish to all Leos!
We will all be in for a fun filled Month.

Jacaranda Heaven

Most of the Jacaranda Trees are in full bloom now.

When I took this photo the weather had come up windy

so the blossoms have started to fall to the ground like confetti.

Then we got a very wet afternoon after two hot days.

This is one of the streets lined with Jacaranda's.

It only a side street so I have to remember to go out of my way not to miss

this pretty sight of this group of trees flowering all at once.

Close up the blossoms are very pretty to look at.

Usually I take some cuttings to display at home but they only last a little while.

Missy our Dog loves to be out walking, that is when she is not sleeping!

She needs her exercise because she has short legs and likes to eat a lot!

For Summer we get her fur all clipped to keep her much cooler,

she looks like a new dog.

Here she is waiting for the boys to come back home with the removal truck.

It's Moving Day for our Son he and his partner are getting a home together.

Happy time but a bit sad also, they grow up fast.

Empty Nest time, lucky he is not going far away though!

Hubby is being extra handy and is half way through laying Timber floor boards.

In the photo they look a bit lighter coloured than in real life.

Nice, fresh and shiny. Will be all finished before Christmas.

Meanwhile lots of moving around of furniture and boxing up gear.

Having a bit of a tidy up of all the cupboards while we are at it.

Here's to new beginnings and happy times!

Best Wishes, Sue xOxOx
