Mystery Bug


Found this chap in the pond this morning.

If I had to estimate, I'd say about 1.5" long.

When upset he looks like this.

When really angry two whitish triangles appeared at the tip of his tale, probably a sting.

He was released away from the houses.

Any ideas what this is? Thanks.

How my family see me...

This is how my parents see me. I've noticed that a lot of candid photos are cropping up showing me photographing something. There's this one my dad took earlier this year at the Jack London Estate up in the wine country.

One of my favourite pictures of me was taken by my wife up in Yosemite. I really should find it, it's very good.

The Rug That I Made


I was just looking at some of the pictures my youngest had taken, and found this amongst them. It's the rug I made last winter.

I half promised to make one for someone else, I'd better get started, it's only 8 weeks to Christmas.

The Pond, Stage 3

So the holes are dug. The raised planter built and the liner placed.
Looks like "The Attack of the Killer Bin Bags".

I did tidy up the garden

Yeah, sure it's just a hose reel, what's the whoop? the whoop is the three bags of pea gravel and one bag of bark that changed a muddy messy weed garden into an almost presentable garden border.

This will probably make more sense to my parents as they helped me start this project in March, when we split the young lavendar from the parent, and found some small self set rosemary plants.


By mid September I finally found the time and energy to sort it all out.


Besides, I had to tidy this up before I could start in on the pool, and railway on the other side.

That is the full 15' of our garden there, from the house to the garage. Yes, it extends 19' the other way, but that is all "under construction.
