Day 362

A gift from special friends several years ago . . .
this Calla Lily hadn't flowered for the past three years due to a certain "Who Me?" destroying it;
  a change of environment had impacted too — it has survived the odds & begun to put on a show again, although we've no idea why the flowers are no longer a burgundy colour!

all done,
it's an A+!

2009 . . .
8 weeks of layouts only,
it's an F for fail!



I live in a beautiful part of the world, with glorious ocean views, kangaroos bounding across the hilltops, assorted wildlife (echidnas, cape barron geese etc), birdlife & reptiles (not all nice . . . tiger snakes & copperheads —eek!)
