Touring

Monday afternoon (Sunday in the northern hemisphere) I joined a tour around some of the Mornington peninnsula provided by one of the residents of the caravan park. This is Point Leo.

Parks are maintained all around the beaches for the public, yet are charmingly personal, providing a picture view. This is Point Leo.

 

 

 

The tour went from Westernport to Sorrento and back to Mornington, stopping at many beautiful places inbettween.

Yes, it is cold here.

I managed to convince the driver to stop and let me take photos of two fences.

 

 

 

Betty (see previous posts) did not join the tour because she said it was "a cut lunch" which means that it is such a long trip that she would have to prepare a lunch and cut sandwiches and cakes to pack. She said she the 60 mile trip was too far, and that was "fair dink" , (which is short for "fair dinkum" which means truthful)and that was it, and she said she was "sticking by her story" which is another of her one-liners that I wrote down.

We were gone from noon til 5 pm and I was tired of taking pictures and tired of touring but saw one more photo opportunity when we got back to the caravan park. This is a sign with a little street light here, and below is a scene showing the low fog on the field.

I had a bit of winding-down time this evening, making a paper mirror using aluminum foil. I sometimes watch the shows about home make-over contests and wonder what the results would be if the producers of that kind of show would only allow home improvements using household products like sheets, towels and ordinary household products.

This is the pin cushion I sewed with scraps of fabric and a cardboard base, from yesterday's projects shown on the previous post.

Below is a little basket made of the same fabric, which will be filled with something handmade.

I added a little potholder to the kitchen decor with the daisy fabric.

A few thoughts on being a lady:

It is important to gracefully over-look faults in others, yet important to maintain your own integrity and dignity by not indulging in the vices or improprieties of those who want to be our friends.

Some people who come across as being rude do not intend to be so.
