Sunday, Sunday

Quiet, very quiet.

The dog nagged and nagged until, at around 2.30pm, I gave in and headed to the car for a walk. Well I'm still not feeling the best so I needed the car to take him for a walk....

Not logical, well it was more of a look and see where we could be walking.

So when you haven't got any particular destination where do you go in Kalgoorlie. Well I found myself making a quick tour of Boulder. On the way home I spotted a shop that has long intrigued me and so seizing the moment I stopped to have a look. There were a number of cars parked outside, so I wasn't going to be on my own.

I was quite taken aback for behind these inauspicious doors, totally belying its humble exterior I found; china delicate enough for the finest dining room, exquisite glassware, ornaments suitable for elegant drawing rooms and a plethora of giftware to suit the youngest to the oldest of tastes. To cap it all a young shop assistant approached me and asked if I'd like a cup of tea while I browsed.......now I've never had that happen to me before. Well yes at the hairdressers.

I love the pleasantly unexpected and somehow this often seems to happen here in Kal.

From there I thought I really had better take Chardy for his walk, so headed towards one of our favourite grassed areas. It was here I took the photos of the flowering gums and made note of more newly planted trees.
