HAPPY NEW WEEK!
I hope everyone has a joyful, peaceful week.
My patch has been noisy! The bobcat up on the ridge was screaming for a mate. The coyotes were howling and yipping softly while they prepare for the births of their puppies. Two male barred owls raised a ruckus while they competed for a nesting site in the woods across from my front door.
The pub (bar) on the highway next to my land has a new owner. He's a young, single guy, and he's been playing loud music every evening while he's working hard to renovate and remodel the old place. Folks around the county are awaiting the reopening.
So, the wildlife and the humans are all anxious for the end of the winter isolation.
Love to all of you. Take care, all.
First of month again and site didn’t want to know me. No time now to read back. See you later.

I caught bus this morn to an unfamiliar shopping centre for bread, veggies. Then to my library (5 min walk) to collect a book on hold. I learnt that my library has a pickup service Thurs morn to library only. The Community Bus run by Council can take me to my favourite shop centre (supermarket, chemist, bakery, etc) also Thurs morn. Restricted to 2 bags, so I shall only need to ask Dau#2 for a major shop every few weeks (I hope).
Very windy today, only 21 C. So windy the noise woke me from my nanny nap.
I just read that the face of King Charles will not be put upon the new $5 bank notes in Australia, following the death of the Queen. Its the only banknote with a portrait of a monarch on it, as the others have indigenous art, and buildings. The coins still show HM Queen. I think this is right, and Australia needs to gradually move on. Times change and eventually they will break their ties with our monarchy.
