pretty much the cutest.
ever.

homebound.

lakeside walks.

cromwell plus summer equals lakeside walks.

fortune fruit.

have been meaning to blog summery photos for rather a long time.
these are from the access road to the orchard.
its such a pretty drive to work.

i can see again.

i had three days off work so the sweethearts could ripen.
so i had a chance to drive through to queenstown
and finally get my fringe trimmed.

central migration.

i finally drove through to cromwell on boxing day
to start my usual summer job sorting cherries the next day.
i stopped just before middlemarch when the sky looked particularly moody.

i finally met the puppies.

earl, five and lou.
and soon won them over with their evening milk, explorative walks around the paddock and excessive patting.
turns out lou is the least photogenic of the three.
only because she refuses to sit still.

last month in auckland

eden garden and auckland viaduct.
i think i must have forgotten the lens cap on my birthday.
now i'm at home on the farm.
