The weather for today

This is the clouds that rolled in about mid morning. Threatening to rain but it didn't, they just past over without even a drop of water.

This is the view from our deck, it is about to change when the council gives building consent to the home for the aged to build 54 new retirement villas here.

That is going to be a sad day for us, as at the moment the area is full of birdsong in the morning dawn and the birds that nest in these big trees will be gone when the trees get cut down. Its lovely to overlook this green space. Maybe it'll be time to move on when we have only houses to look at. It was the view that attracted us to the house in the first place. I'm told " that's progress ".
