Down at the wharf

How wondrous is the beauty of nature ~
This morning I wanted to share with you some of the scenery down at the wharf.
I love trees and the Pohutakawa Tree { also known as the NZ Christmas tree}
is splendid in the month of December, when it shows off its crimson flowers.
It is flowering early and always reminds me of a glamorous Lady with a little touch of red lipstick.


Looking down at the road, when I was dropping my family to the wharf, I saw this little heart, after there had been a shower of rain in the night. Do you ever see clouds or things like this that make you happy?

Every artist dips his brush in his own soul and paints his own nature into his pictures

I had a Grrr moment this morning .... doing a load of laundry when my washing machine decided it wanted to play up. It started beeping and code # 37 came up on the display...
Call appliance serviceman it said. I left a message on the phone and will have to wait until he can do his magic and get it going again. So much for having a load of wet laundry on the first rinse cycle.
Update: The serviceman came and fixed my machine and a nail and small chain were blocking the pump, causing the spin cycle not to work. I am so glad to have it going again.

Have a happy rest of the week
