After our The Drips adventure on Tuesday, we had a wonderful couple of days of rest. Both Lou and I were kind of banged up from our falls, so Wednesday we didn’t do much. Lou took Banjo, his dog, to the vet for shots and Christine and I just relaxed around the house. And, of course, we watched tennis.
There was a beautiful sunrise. The back of Lou’s house faces east so he gets good sunrises.
Later in the evening, we watched a big storm cloud come our way, but the rain actually missed us.
Thursday was another restful day. I like to go out to the aviaries and watch the birds. Some are friendly while others take flight as far away from the front of the cage as possible. Lou picked up a new bird on Tuesday in Mudgee. It’s bright yellow and is a ringneck parrot to go with his while and green ringnecks.
Friday was laundry day and we did 3 loads and pegged them out to dry. The hot sun does the job quickly. We did walk into town for a morning coffee. As I said, Rylstone is a very nice little town. We pass by 2 lovely stone cottages that I really admire.
While having coffee, we had a lovely chat with two young fellows who were in the area on holiday. We sounded like old locals as we were telling them of the area attractions and they were very keen on doing some of them.
Tomorrow we’re off to the central coast to stay with Lou’s sister Gloria and her husband Alex for a few days before heading north to visit Lou’s brother Tony and his wife Liz. Gloria and Lou have arranged for a bit of a family gathering on Saturday so we’ll be able to catch up with more family. So we ended the day packing and getting ready for our next adventure.
Hoe much fun to hve an aviary on-site
