Hi there!

​

I live in a small town in the North Island of New Zealand where hubby and I have a lifestyle block with a few cattle. At present, we have two heifers. As both were black when they arrived, we had no way to identify them at first - then realized one has white on her hind feet, so I named her Footer. That meant the other one - of course - had to be Header.

​

Here on the west coast, the temperatures are mild and we usually have a good supply of rain - ideal for gardens which is perfect for flower-loving me. It's inevitable that some photos of my garden will appear on this site and occasionally turn up on Facebook.

​

We have four grown-up kids, all married with families but none of them live close so we try to visit as often as we can. 

When I’m not writing, reading, or gardening, I can often be found on the pillion seat of my husband’s motorbike as we explore this very picturesque country.

​

Although we enjoy riding his motorbike together, for our last holiday - an African safari - we left the bike at home and joined two other couples on a private tour. What an awesome trip that was! I loved every minute! Below are just a few of my numerous photos. I hope you enjoy them.
