People at Possum Bend in the Autumn Sunshine

Aaron (AKA Farmer Brown), looking quite comfortable in his DRIZABONE oilskin hat and wellies...strange though, since I haven't seen him standing this still the entire time we've been here at Possum Bend...










This cuddly duo are, of course, yours truly and Miss Phoebe. Here we are on the slopes of the paddock above Tunanui Stream (means 'Big Eel')...

Neighbours...

This fine gentleman is Peter, our neighbour along Possum Bend. He has the most beautiful, charming garden, bursting with all manner of colourful goodies - fruit, flowers and glossy foliage in abundance - and just when I thought I'd seen everything I stumbled across a Bali-inspired sleeping platform, painted brightly (yeah - so how did I miss it???!!!), yet secluded within the lush planting...

Ivan, who is clearly NOT listening to a single word Peter is uttering, is a puzzling 'Chinese Crested' with the hilarious habit of leaving the tip of his tongue dangling out the right side of his mouth....

And this young man is Kade, Phoebe's newest friend, who lives in the house over the road. They get on extremely well and have many adventures.
