Rear vision reflections of a busy week


After a busy week of which my eyeballs are literally fried and my brain is now inactive I've been relaxing by going through more of my photos from last weekend and found this odd one. I must've been experimenting with different settings in my camera along the main highway just past Levin.

Unfortunately I do remember it wasn't a very interesting drive at this point, just miles and miles of flat farmland. Sure was nice to be home again, I do hope you've had a good week too :-)

It is always good to take a look back. You can always find something you missed.

When my eyes are fried (which is pretty much every day). they are too tired to look at pictures :-(
I like reflection in side view mirrors, they are multi-dimensional (the reflection of the phone poles in the glass)

We have driven to Wellington a few times, so we recognize the nothingness of the area. Great job making it interesting.

Grace Brothers

  We have 2 new chickens, both black ladies. If any of you are familiar with British comedy tv shows you will recognize the names we have given them. This one is named Miss Brahms. And this one is named Mrs Slocombe. At the moment we have them in a temporary shelter next to the Special Patrol Group that we've had for the last 9 months just so they can get to know each other before we intigrate the black ones in with the brown ones. These ones give us a white coloured egg whereas the brown shavers give us brown coloured eggs. Linking up with  Tuesday Treasures ,  Happy Tuesdays  and   Wordless Wednesday .

Auckland Metropolis Museum

In amongt the modern new highrise buildings in Auckland City is this smaller vintage building that is currently for sale (I'd buy it if I had the money).   My research found that:  "It was designed by English-born architect Charles Towle and erected in the early 1930s as the Church of Christ, Scientist, the building's Graeco-Roman facade has towering columns that frame its impressive entranceway, with three ornate timber doors decorated with leadlight inserts providing access to the expansive foyer.

The building housed congregational and Sunday school services for 70 years until it was sold and converted into office space in 2003. A significant refurbishment was also carried out with care taken to ensure that the building's distinctive character remained intact. Special architectural ...
