We started the day in Corn Buck. It has been a long time since we went up together with lunch and a purpose. The weather was kind, no rain, and a cloud filtered sun . T had begun work up there already and invited me to join him 'just to see'.

T took the opportunity to wash the dogs' bedding in the river, spreading them out to dry on warm river stones, which have totally different personalities from the ones in the bush.
Once home I did my share and washed the white things, a task
divided into manageable bites by frequent internet visits and refreshments between rinses, combined with some lively

If more people were to celebrate this sort of accomplishment more often, they'd be more happiness. Instead, it's all about how much we have. No wonder so many people are sour.
