find me friday #4

I’ve been involuntarily internet-less all week, so I have a few posts to catch up on. But it’s Friday, and I’m determined to actually do a Find Me Friday post on the right day for once. Last week’s puzzle was too easy for Snuva, who says she knows this...

Bruny – day 2 (part 2)

After lunch on Day 2, we headed south to Cape Bruny Lighthouse. Most of the road is unsealed, and it was a lovely drive. To get to the lighthouse, you drive through part of South Bruny National Park. There are two main sections of this park at the southernmost...

Bruny Island – day 2 (part 1)

This morning we woke to a few spots of rain. Juniordwarf was quite upset by this and demanded an umbrella. When we told him there wasn’t one, he said he’d get his own umbrella. The nearest available umbrella-type object was the cover of his camp chair. Innovative. Today’s maximum...

find me friday #3

It’s Saturday, so it must be time for this week’s Find Me Friday. I’m starting to remember why I stopped doing this last time. Fridays are busy. Perhaps it needs to be renamed as “Where Am I Wednesday” or “Search For Me Saturday”. Catchy. OK, on with the game....

project life 2014 album – new title page

I finally decided to buy the digital Project Life kit to go with my Sunshine Edition cards. I did this in 2012 with the Cobalt Edition and I liked how I could use this for a hybrid approach – for example, printing photos onto a 6×4 journal card and...

Bruny Island – day 1 (part 2)

My criteria for a campsite are quite simple. I like my comforts. Specifically, I like to stay somewhere with an “amenities block”. I have done roughing it camping (aka Proper Camping) in the distant past, so to distinguish that from what we normally do, I shall refer to our...

Bruny Island – day 1 (part 1)

We usually have at least one camping trip in January. This year we decided to go to Bruny Island, which is a place that apparently everyone in Tasmania, except for us, has been to at least once. Whenever I’d I say I’d never been there, people would look at...

Find Me Friday #2

Ok, it’s Saturday, so obviously it’s time for this week’s Find Me Friday, and the answer to last week’s puzzle. My excuse – I’ve been away for a few days and have taken lots of photos. Enough to fill the next two or three or four posts. So, where...

12 of 12 January 2014

I was introduced to 12 of 12 by my friend Snuva, who has been doing this for ages. All you do is take 12 photos of your life on the 12th of each month. Some days will be mundane, even boring, and totally normal, others will be exciting and...

find me friday returns

Way back when I’d just started this blog, almost exactly three years ago, I wrote a post about how much I enjoyed looking up at the old buildings in Hobart (that post is here). That post inspired me to start what was going to be a regular feature on...
