WEEK 187 FRIDAY SMILES
Happy Friday everyone and I hope you've had a wonderful week with plenty to make you smile...
I'm a little later posting this week as I've been over to our daughter home to watch our local rugby league time win by two point in one of the semi finals... so of course I'm really pleased about that.
But my 'make you smile' this week is a little incident that happened just prior to my game date. ...
I had to drop my hubby and son off at the game, early, so we needed to make sure our new hens were safely locked away - we've only had them two week as you know, and they've certainly made themselves at home and dug and scratched up heaps of my garden and all the mulch along our driveway. Well - we couldn't find them, nowhere in the yard, under the house and there I am over the back fence (it's open public park space), yelling out 'here chooky chookies', 'where are you girls' - the three of us checked out the yard and least three times and out along the front fences of our neighbours and even down the street and up the lane...no chickens. Are they stolen, in the pound, eaten by the huge dog next door, so I'm getting anxious - a bit. Well I dropped the men off at the club and drove back around the streets, nothing. And I've called our daughter to say I'm not coming for dinner and wondering where I'm going to look next and if I'll have to do a letterbox drop in the morning.....when who should just amble on into the yard, right from the direction I'd been looking, but two naughty chooks. What a relief, just been for a neighbourhood stroll, to check out if the grass is greener on the other side.
Now lastly just a series of sunrise pics I took this morning - I just love to watch how the sky changes colours - I know Kate does too. You get the nicest ones when there's clouds and those are really what have us smiling because we are so in need of some rain....a little bit here but hopefully some more nearby in our water catchment areas.
What naughty chooks....I bet they were hiding round the corner watching you search and having a good giggle together.😄 I love your sky pics.

Wow! Beautiful sky! The colour is amazing!
ReplyDeleteI did smile at your story of the naughty chickens!
Have a good week,
Lisca
PS I didn't post anything today. Next week is another week.
I really enjoyed the story of the naughty chicks, and I LOVED the photos of the sunrise. Of course, the beauty of the sky was added to by the awesome silhouetted palm tree. Who doesn't love a palm, right? Hope your weekend is wonderful, too.
ReplyDeleteThanks, too, for visiting me while I slept. So sweet of you!
Naughty chooks.
ReplyDeleteLovely sunrise.
Hope you have a lovely weekend. Sue
Pleased to hear the hens turned up. It reminds me of a story my husband once told me about some ponies they had that disappeared one evening in the fog, when the fog lifted they found them across the road under the bus stop shelter. We believe they thought they were in their stable. Lovely photographs, gorgeous clouds. Happy weekend which I think may have already started for you, Angela x
ReplyDeleteNeedless to say, that stunning sunrise really made me smile. We both had the same idea this week. It kind of brings the world into perspective when you see the same thing bringing delight in 'distant lands'.
ReplyDeleteI am glad those naughty chooks found their way home safely. Kate xx
