Friday19 September
Two years ago I attended Kyogle's Country Show. I was very impressed.
I was able to attend again last month and decided to enter in the photography and crocheting competitions, with no great expectations other than adding to the number of exhibits. This necessitated my driving on two consecutive Fridays, to enter my pieces and then to attend the show.
The drive down is always relaxing. Country vistas quickly calm and soothe.
It was a low cloud foggy morning. I was unable to see Mt Lindsey but but Mt Barney was gently unwrapping itself.
The Jacaranda tree's foliage was turning yellow, before the leaves drop and the arrival of wonderful purple blooms.
The 30 year old Azalea in front of the house was looking magnificent, as were all the staghorns.
King Orchid
Chinese Ground Orchid
I was interrupting my cousin's morning of fertilizing his finger limes. Once we shared coffee, I insisted on helping.
Avocado blossom
Almost home, I just had to stop and enjoy these Spring Minions.
Spring in my garden the following afternoon.
A week later .................
Saturday 26, I was woken by a wonderful dawn chorous. I had travelled down on the previous day and had totally enjoyed day 1 of the show.
Once woken, I didn't linger long.
I hope your volume is up. More stirring country sounds.
Spectacular cluster of branches on this tree.
Sulphur Crested Cockatoo - can be heard screeching noisily in one of the videos.
The following morning .........
If you hadn't noticed, visiting Kyogle, Locheil and being in the country is a very happy place for me.
I would love to read your comment.
