A very bracing jaunt!

This must be a bit of a record - my third post of the day!  But the sun has been shining, and that has gladdened the heart and sharpened the eye, keen to take advantage of the light, and clear blue sky.

At lunchtime, Mr Gaucho and I, plus Tilly of course, went to North Berwick for our customary bowl of soup (for me), and flat white with a wedge of granola bar (for Mr G) at our favourite cafe, Steam Punk.  It's a wonderful Melbourne-style cafe, with excellent coffee, good food and a buzzy atmosphere - we love it.  And they welcome dogs, so Tilly loves it too.
After lunch we walked down to the west beach, where the sun, sitting low in the sky, was catching the surf as the waves broke and ran over the sand.
With a brisk wind blowing, and welcome winter sunshine, who could resist hanging out the washing today - especially on this line, which must be the most photographed in the world!  
 
By the time we had walked along the east beach and back to the car, our cheeks were cold and rosy from the bracing wind.  It was very good to get out into the sunshine again.

In a vase on Monday - colour

The intense colours in my vase this week come from nasturtiums, sweetpeas and a single glorious zinnia! Their beauty and love of life speak for themselves and need no further words from me! Enjoy!

Possibly the last post and a sizzlingly hot vase on Monday

The border in our tiny garden is in an in-between phase at the moment and not very colourful, but elsewhere there are pops of high summer colour and I have brought them together in my vase today. The running wave uses Blogger as it's vehicle and they are changing the way a post is created but unfortunately I cannot make the new format work. I can't progress beyond the title! I cannot navigate to the main body of the post to create text. The new template has no prompts for adding photos, weblinks, to format the text, change font etc. It may be my old MacBook that's as fault but I can't do anything about that!! Are any other IAVOM bloggers who use Blogger having the same problems? I have tried, three times, to contact Blogger through their 'Help' prompt and received no feedback or contact whatsoever. This post is using the old 'Legacy' format, which no longer permits any kind of formatting of text, and so after four attempts I have finally manage...

Early morning light

There have been some cracking early morning skies this week.  The sunrise has generated a strong rose gold light which has been picked up not only in the clouds but also through the silver-white grasses around the edge of the golf course. I always marvel at the clouds.  Constantly changing, formations that have never been seen before, never to be seen again.
