izmeinaIt's almost the end of May and I still haven't dusted off the Big Mac in order to do a long overdue squiggle Blitz
And it's not likely for the next few days because I'm currently down south in my favorite serpent lurking ground.
Eden Vale is my name for this little bit of serpent paradise but it's better known to Muggles as Bridgetown.
I still can't believe that it's been a whole 6 years to the very day since I last slinked down here back in 2019
25th May was also a Saturday that year. I made sure I booked for the following May so I could have a whole year of looking forward to my visit.
Usually I visit around Halloween for the annual Festival of Country Gardens, but I already had October 2020 set aside for my grand European adventure.
How the Gods cackle when serpents made plans.
So COVID soon put an end to all that. Between assorted hospital stays and my sister's visit last October, it's only now I'm finally getting back to favorite old habits
The town is as magical & spooky as ever. Last night was raining but tonight I got a good gawk at the Milky Way before the rising moon spoiled the view.
I so so miss being able to see the stars at night.
One of the other many magical things here is that there are just so many birds. From tiny little blue wrens right up to black cockatoos.
I didn't win Thursday's $150 million Powerball so it's back to the Bug Smoke for me on Monday.
Sssssss
