"I haven't been home for so long."
Our son in Melbourne who like so many Kiwis is now literally unable to fly, who's kept away from family and friends by heartless, totalitarian Governments in NZ and Victoria, asked for photos of our garden.
When he saw them, his comment was something like, "Wow! I don't know how you find the time."
I don't: God finds it for me.

ReplyDeleteSo beautiful! The garden too... 😉😊
ReplyDeleteLovely home and views, Julia.
ReplyDeleteWow an earthly paradise. God may have the overall say on how things grow but those manicured hedges don't trim themselves.
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful! Well done!
