I love this old hollowed out tree ....






Can you spot the roos?




We enjoyed our Sunday with my Mother-in-law and then travelled back home on Monday (public holiday) through the beautiful Clare Valley. I didn't take any photos ... but think blue skies, gently rolling hills with lots of green grass and pretty purple flowers, fields of bright yellow canola, and cute little towns and markets - so adorable!


Talking about scenery .... and because this is supposed to be a quilting blog .....
