MOONING
Monday Morning. Hog delivery day.
Yesterday, before I loaded the well-fed hog, I loaded and shifted the Uniball Bobby to join the beefers on the other side (he will be sold when I return from NZ) and loaded and shifted Poppy, who went to join Manu.
The truck and the stock trailer was busy yesterday. And in a few minutes, I will climb back into the truck with the trailer behind, my two sleepy dogs in the back seat, hot coffee in my thermos and drive off into the dark dawn.
I hope you have a lovely day.
Love celi

Poppy will be happy!
And Manu – he has had enough of being solitary over there – I might even put them together today – they both seem quite calm through the gate
“Uniball Bobby!” Snort, cackle… We should not mock his affliction, but what a FABULOUS name!
Not that its a name or anything – chuckle!!
Thats what made me almost snort wine through my nose. Great name!
Celi sure does have a way with words…
Safe travels!
Back again- uneventful
As luck would have it, we have had 3 nights of heavy cloud cover and rain, sadly didn’t see the supermoon 🤐 hope you are back safely from your travels. Laura
Yes i am back – quick breakfast then back outside..
That’s a full plate of things to do before you even have coffee!! Stay safe and warm. Keeping good thoughts for you.
It is a very warm day but with extremely high winds
Wow – on the road before dawn!! Great photos, as always. AND – you’re getting closer and closer to heading out to New Zealand!!
Mondays are a bit like that
Sometimes “mooning” is quite beautiful!!!!!!!
this moon was fantastic – though it has called up a gale!
The Full Cold, “Super” Moon. Bringing rain by midnight by the look of it; but well above zero (at least for tonight; )
Those gusting winds can only mean one thing. Brrrrrrr. But that moon last night – wow!!
Drive safely! and as always have a lovely day!
The moon is riveting. All the time, but especially now. Can’t take my eyes off that enormous pearl. I think it’s trying to tell us to shape up.
Beautiful pictures. I am always trying to capture the moon in pictures. It’s nice to know the moon and its light is there for all of us to work/sleep/love under. Safe travels.
After the Christmas tree lighting festivities in our little town. we had supper then headed up to Lookout Point to gaze at the moon. Gosh it was gorgeous! Sadly to say, it does not photograph well on cell phone cameras! Wonderful evening!
Love your photos! x
A Super Moon, I think… the nights have been like daylight here.
I’ve scrolled up and down a few times … no one asked what those lights are that you painted with in the first shot? What are those? The shot has captured my imagination … but I’m thinking it likely isn’t alien landings, or fireworks, or well lit frogs on the rainy early morning roadside … ?
Towers. In the distance – um – internet and phone that kind of thing- the poor plains are plain no longer
Nice when those type of intrusions turn into something lovely in a shot. I know that feeling. We border on a fairgrounds. It is only used occasionally during the summers. But all winter I notice the plastic primary coloured playground structure they built right up against our property. They had almost one hundred acres to work with … but there they are … right next door. Oh well. They give the donkeys some entertainment. They are nosey little jennies and love to eavesdrop (from a safe distance in their trees) on those hanging out at the picnic tables. 😉
