We Hope You Had A Great Easter, We're Back On Deck Tomorrow

It is a privilege to leave the city on holidays - to get away from the daily routine and plonk yourself near some naturally occurring stuff. You can hear the night on a farm in a way you can't hear it in the city. All the small sounds and machinations of living creatures fill the night and are on occasion broken by the cries of a goat or the switching on of an automated pump.

The brown snakes were still out, or so we were told, so there was no lying down and falling asleep in the long grass. The Australian rural environment is not one that you can necessarily relax in. A certain level of vigilance is always required. You need to constantly check things... Check your boots for spiders, check the grass for snakes, check the fly screen door is closed, check the car roof is up, check the water tank and check the shed to make sure nothing has been stolen.... But after it is all done, you have quiet moments in a paddock where you get to take photos like the ones below.

We hope you enjoyed your Easter,
LNP.
