A Special Birthday for a Special Pup: 27.6.10

We had a wonderful last Sunday (27.6.10). It was the dog-son's (Bailey) 3rd birthday, so we decided to take a drive to one of our favourite spots in the Flinders Ranges and celebrate with a bush-BBQ lunch.

The weather was splendid: Cool but clear, and SJ's parents, Aunt and Uncle elected to join us for the drive and lunch. There was plenty of good food - including cake - to share, and Bailey was free to chase the scent of rabbits, sheep and kangaroos to his heart's delight!

My only wish is that the photos were better: I ended up having to use the camera on my mobile phone as the batteries in the Olympus went flat before I even had the opportunity to take the first picture. The slight cover of green over the red earth and a bright blue sky made everything feel fresh and new, and reminded me that even though it might be chilly, Winter in the Flinders is such a beautiful time of year.
