There's a lot to be said for just sitting back and taking stock....
I drove my sister-in-law to the airport last night and thought I'd be a whirlwind today.
Hmm...well that didn't happen. But then there's always tomorrow...
Photo taken at Healesville Animal Sanctuary....(future post when I can get to it :$)
Have a great weekend everyone and remember to sit awhile ;D

ReplyDeleteThanks May, I was pleased with it because most of the time he wouldn't look at me...I stood there for quite some time ;D
DeleteHave a wonderful weekend and hopefully the sun will shine. xox
Very cute! I have heard though that Koalas are very smelly. Is this true? (You should know, because you evidently got very close to one!) :-)
ReplyDeleteNo more than your average whiffy gardener after digging the compost heap Mark! ;D
DeleteHere's a little fact...
It's not hard to see why a koala might smell like eucalyptus. It's pretty much all they eat. This means koalas hardly ever have to leave the trees, so they're out of reach from the countless predators who would find the little 25-pound (about 11 kg), slow-moving marsupial an easy target. It also means they can sometimes smell like cough drops.
Only sometimes, though -- it's mostly the young koalas that give off a slight eucalyptus scent. Adult koalas smell more like a mixture of urine and koala-mating musk, according to the Australian Koala Foundation.

Have a great weekend Mark...and thanks for giving me a giggle ;D
What a wonderful picture!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for your sweet visit--I always appreciate when you come by! PLEASE frame your cross-stitch piece! I think your family will definitely be grateful that you did! I have a few pieces I need to frame, too--thanks for reminding me! I think I focus so much on the older family heirlooms that I forget some of the things I've made will be considered that as well, someday!
Wishing you a wonderful weekend, my friend!
Julie
Thanks for popping over to visit Julie, I'm so happy to see you.
DeleteI'm of the same mind that our blogs might one day be priceless for our future generations. They'll be able to get to know us on an incredible personal level.
Okay you've convinced me to frame the cross-stitch ;D
Wishing you a great week ahead ~ enjoy :D
