Weekend at Wynyard

 We spent last weekend in an Airbnb at Wynyard for Marnie's birthday.

When we first moved to Tasmania (from Sydney) almost 40 years ago, we lived at Wynyard for a few years, so it was a bit of a 'step back in time' to revisit places, including Boat Harbour and Sisters Beach. 

We ate out, went to the Foreshore Market, for walks along the beachfront and by the river.  Yes... there's a river there too!  The Inglis River :)

And even though it's winter, there were some lovely native flowers blooming...

Back home now and recovering.  We had good weather for most of our time away, but it's making up for it now, with lots of rain. I'm happy to be home with my books and knitting...

on to my 12th Shoebox scarf and feeling the need for a change, but will try and do a couple more

Finished Little Town... last night and will start These Happy Golden Years, as it's the last of the Little House books I have. Then I'll have to decide what to read next.

And so that my hometown river doesn't feel left out, here's one from my walk this morning (before the rains came...)

I heard a couple of quotes recently about smiles...

"You're not dressed till you have a smile on your face."

and 

"If you see someone without a smile today, give them yours."
