Beware of the rake.

Beware of the Rake.

It is Autumn in Ozzie Land, and that rake is not to be reckoned with.

Granny has Crab apple, Silver birch, and an ornamental Pear tree, and they all loose their leaves.    

Don't get me wrong, I looove playing in them especially when they are all raked up in piles.

I had trouble this morning, Granny was going as fast as she could. Now we all know how fast that is....hmmm... 

She was chatting to a friend and I nearly got raked up into that dust pan. Golly gosh.........

Last week I was left behind and this week getting raked up!!! Can you imagine poor Wilbur in the compost bin, with all those smelly things.

I had to wriggle and squirm and yell...

The compost bin is back behind the shed. Granny calls it No Mans Land.

No wonder it is No Mans Land; a humunbeing wouldn't want to go there. A Bear definitely wouldn't want to go there. 

I am so glad I was recued it nearly gave me a heart attack I just want to enjoy the garden from my chair . Just in case that RAKE comes out again.

As you can see Granny has been potting again. Did I say POTTING..... she potters all day.

She was in a hurry doing her gardening because she is wanting to finish a new bear. 

Arrr. I feel much safer sitting here showing you Granny's flowers.

Well don't tell her; I showed her lavender that she cut back too hard and it nearly died.

 This is where the birdy's drink.

These are some of her Peppers..Yuck. I don't like Peppers.. They are not nice even when you put honey on them.

After my fright I need honey and peanut butterr on toast and a big Hug from Granny.

She did say she was very sorry, and would get her glasses checked real soon. 

I told her "Real Soon."

Nest week I will be late posting because I have something special to tell you and I won't be able to tell you until a few days latter.

Are you Guessing????

Welcome

I picked these from my garden just for my lovely followers, and friends.

Thank you for being there to rescue me if needed..

My thought for the week.

"The whole difference between construction and creation is exactly this;

that a thing constructed can only be loved after it is  constructed;

but a thing created is loved before it exsists."

Granny's bears are created.

Linda Benson's work shop, and Hahndorf Doll and Bear show.

LINDA BENSON'S 
workshop.
Granny said she had the best 3 days sewing a brown bear that they made at the workshop .I am sulking because Granny has been too busy to play with me.
I couldn't post last week because she was busy.
I've even gone fuzzy because I am so up set.

Granny said to tell you all if you get a chance to do Linda's work shop you should do it.

They all made beautiful bears. Most didn't get finished. Granny's, is still sitting on the table getting stuffed and then the tail needs to go on.

This is a photo of all of us with the talented Linda  in the middle kneeling down.

They all are smiling and I was left home.

Poor little Bear. Taking the photo makes Granny see he has a crooked nose.  More stitching happening around here I can tell. 

Poor bear hasn't been sewn up, can you see the white where his tummy is falling out.

For goodness sake Granny, I can't bear!!!! looking at innards. Do you think mine look like that.

This big bear is by Linda, he has got the most gentle face. At least I got to know him because I met him at the Hahndorf Doll and Bear Sow.

Can you see me stoking him. I felt like I was stoking a pussy cat he was so soft and lovely.

This is more of Linda's bears, you will drool over them. Granny did. 

Grany said to share a few photo's of the show with you.

The best part of the show was seeing Shirley again. I love seeing  Shirley she is one of my special friends.

We had lot of talks while Granny was selling her bears.

Well that was a long winded post. See I told Granny we should have written to you all last week.

Now it is time for supper. Back to Peanut Butter and HONEY on toast.

See you all next week.

My Thought for the Day.
"People who say they sleep like a baby usually don't have one."

Scenes from Adelaide

In Adelaide we have pigs in the mall.

They have lovely shinny heads and backs where people have patted them.

My, this porker looks very happy I think some of the people have been feeding him, what do you think?

This pig has a whole rubbish bin of scraps. Talk about a pig in mud...

I tried to tell him he will get a tummy ache, like I did at Easter if he ate toooo much.

I think he listened to me because he walked away.

Every one loves our pigs that are in the center of our city's shopping mall.

Are these Bee Hives.

No!!!!

They are sculptures that depict the symbol of home, that were made for the Centenary of Federation.

Oh Granny I really feel like I might slip off.

In our park lands there are about 22 or 23 of these mounds. They look quite good among the gum trees.

It was a busy day going into town, I am worn out and I am just hangin out for Toast, honey and peanut butter for supper. At least I don't eat like those pigs.

Welcome
