Weekend Adventures with Velaris

Hey Adventurers

Firstly - let's get the business side out of the way so we can have a good old chit chat. The original purpose of this post was @photochallenge's Saturday challenge - Mobility

My entry is from the Island of Mykonos. I love seeing the beauty in old discarded things (I wonder if that's a subconscious reaction to getting old?)

Okay now for the chit chat for those of you that want to hang around, December has already fallen off the rails.. but hey, you pick your self up and get back on the horse right? To be honest, this weekend has been not so much posting (well okay some really quick Instagram and FB posts from my phone) but not the long form posts that I normally do.

It's been our 24th wedding anniversary today, so this weekend, we've been occupied with just doing things together.

Hubby said there was a famous quote that "the couple who exercises together, stays together" I think that was a lie to get me to run up and down a really big hill!

And of course, what goes up must come down...

Then we had a scrummy and healthy breakfast at Lotus Cafe. We were just bursting with health and goodness by then!

Next was time to do some more renovations for Miss Two's room.. who'd have thought installing a dado rail would test 24 years! Now I just have to touch up the paint and can start furnishing!

And finally, today we went exploring Munmorah State Recreation Area, complete with a picnic lunch! Of course, I took the good camera, but it's going to take a while to sort the photos... so until then here is a quick snap from the phone.

Well, it's back to work tomorrow. So hopefully everything will settle down to normal.

Til next time,

Wishing you love and light!

The witnesses I feel most strongly about are:

@deranged-witness

This account is run by @derangedvisions This is a guy who spends an enormous amount of time nurturing and helping the photographic community on Whaleshares, with his contests, The PixelPerfect program to teach people and just generally giving up his time to support budding photographers!
