This cauliflower came drizzled in a grainy mustard sauce along with lime and cilantro, giving a light spicey taste. Overall, it was delicious. (Micro.blog October photo challenge, Day 7)

There are some beautiful Copper Beach trees on the streets of Bristol. (Micro.blog October photo challenge, Day 6)
This morning’s toy of choice before my grandson headed off to school. (Micro.blog October photo challenge, Day 5)
The view from my seat was anything but sharp as I waited to depart Heathrow on Saturday afternoon. It felt like the heavens were making up for September’s dry weather. (Micro.blog October photo challenge, Day 4)
A scene at Terminal 5, Heathrow yesterday morning. Although there are a lot of people sitting down here, the majority appeared to be walking around shopping or looking for food. (Micro.blog October photo challenge, Day 3)
It’s still dark outside as I get ready for my trip back to Maui. (Micro.blog October photo challenge, Day 2)

A gentle touch. (Micro.blog October photo challenge, Day 1)
There was a beautiful Harvest Moon over Bristol last night, rising as an orange orb in the early evening. The attached photo, taken with my iPhone 7 Plus, in no way does it justice.
A moody sky in Bristol this evening.
Urban commuter route.
How phones used to be…and this one works.
Well I lost that one, but it was fun to play Rummikub with my sister last night, with mum looking on to learn how to play.
Slowly but surely.
Saturday midday.
Just arrived from my favourite coffee shop. Sterling Coffee Roasters use to be our local coffee shop when we lived in Portland.

Searching a cupboard for some honey, I came across this jar of Marmite. Joy! I haven’t had any for a long time. I know what breakfast will include tomorrow.
Sand Blasted on an Evening Walk
Sunday, August 1, 2021
The trade winds having being blowing very strong over the last couple of days, and an evening stroll along Baldwin Beach was a real challenge yesterday evening. Sand blasted there and back. Winded on the way back. This guy seemed unperturbed by the weather, dozing soundly on the shoreline. 📍 Baldwin Beach Park, Paia
This morning’s harvest. It had just fallen from the tree.

Raising a tent in the back garden
Tuesday, July 13, 2021
I spent a few hours this morning, under baking hot sun, putting this tent up for my grandson. Now it’s up, the tent’s construction looks quite simple. However, it was heavy and had very poor instructions. I ended up resorting to YouTube for a clearer understanding of the what and how it went together. I have now handed over to grandma to furnish the inside.
Starting my move from the Amazon/Kindle world to Rakuten/Kobo.

Do Not Disturb! 📖✍🏻
Friday evening sunset from Ho’okipa. A beautiful evening. Warm, the ocean refreshing, and a family member taking guests out for surfing lessons. There was a real end-of-the-week atmosphere there, with everyone having a grandstand view of the setting sun.
Mother and calf - it is not only the humans who enjoy the views around here.
A “Good Morning” rainbow. 🌈
Garden harvest.
Although it has recently re-opened, I have not been in this theatre for at least 18 months. It might be close to two years. What a time we have collectively been through.
Plants and flowers in the garden early this morning. The white flower on the left is a Spanish Dagger, of the Yucca family. The purple flowers on the right are Agapanthus.
Looking up to a sliver of a New Moon with Venus just to the left and up a bit (south west?) of it. You might be able to make them out in the photo?
