Two disclaimers today - the usual #notaphotographer and Blogger photograph insertion order malarkey.
Image: very well stacked station wagon.
There WAS science on the final load from the storage unit back to home.
We will be moving in 1-3 months (still a movable feast in the hands of lawyers and the domino setting) and I want some fit, healthy young people to do the pick it all up and take it all there transaction in one fell swoop.

V planted for privacy for both the neighbours and ourselves, now a whole ecosystem offering home to many birds.

Image: what I am looking at, cat, is the back yard.
Yes we will miss the height but not the fourteen steps to attain it.

This is the picture that was meant to start my narrative. It was going to be reflective yet anticipatory, then something about the cat before I did any out of the housing.
Image: see this is so terribly out of order - blogger, this is like someone tripped over on their way to a slideshow presentation in the 1980s and they fell over and the whole tray went upside down and they have just been shoved back in hoping nobody would notice. We noticed!
Image: see what I mean. This basket of blue towels has become bereft of meaning in this part of the narrative!
Image: boxes stacked and two tapestries done by Grandma J.
Images: right to left - abstract by KOH; portrait of mother by 'Salina; monacled whale by Jeanie, paired abstract by KOH...
Images: untitled collaboration between Paris and 'Salina; part of amazing sunflower print found at an op shop and poster of "les enfants du Paris" that I have had for at least the last 30 years
Images: Bush Babe of Oz photograph of Riders and various artworks by 'Salina inspired by or for Paris.
Image: crackers pre-oven - I may have had a dummy spit on the first photo for the cooking theme today.
Image: post oven.
Image: our own little Dragon

moving is so much work, but i suppose so is 14 steps. love the photos, even if they're out of order.
I don't mind photos out of order as long as you tell me what I'm looking at. Your vegetation always fascinates me. The bamboo is so thick and lush. We had some when I was growing up, but the stalks were much thinner. I know there must be dozens of varieties.
Your crackers look tasty! I have a friend who went to a baking school awhile back and she has used me as a (very willing) guinea pig for some of her cracker experiments.
Paris driving!!!
Dear Jeanie, I have moved many times in my life and the last 3 by myself, so I understand the work and time involved.
Your photos are beautiful.
I am just glad that I downsized over the years, the less you have it is easier and cheaper to move.
You are doing great.
That's a nice selection of images. You are in the premoving mayhem, nothing in its place but also organised.
The crackers look good. I have never attempted to make my own. I remember playing hide and seek in a bamboo forest in an old lady's backyard, she never minded how many kids came to play there.
