Animals are fed. The better half came with me as my designated “snake spotter”.

No sign of the #snakes.

The boys drank a huge amount of water overnight, so I refilled their troughs.

Smoke everywhere! To the point my asthma started up.

Drove to #Woodend & there was smoke the whole way.

Spotted 1 dead snake just after leaving home - on the road about 50 metres from our place. It was around 1 & a half metres long.

On the way to #Woodend this morning & saw this. 🤔
#Woodend this morning. #birbs

#Parking #Woodend style.

We went for #takeaway food early this evening & #parked behind this #yobbo.

When he left, his driving was as good as his parking. Driver was late 40’s early 50’s maybe?

I deleted his licence plate from the image.

This morning we drove to #Woodend.

It was about 10.30 or so.

To my surprise we saw 5 #mobs of #kangaroos along the #Calder.

A bit late for them to be about & in such numbers.

No luck finding my #lost #weddingring.

My metal detector probe says it’s not in the pot with the #DragonFruit.

It could be anywhere out the back. Plus we went to the #Woodend #FarmersMarket on Saturday. I may have lost it then & not noticed.

Such is life.

Wow! I’m in #Woodend & I have #internet access! Something’s changed.
