Triangles



There's a new mural up in Greymouth on the side one of the buildings on the main street in town. This one was created by "Art by Fi" and all triangles symbolize green for the nikau palms, yellow for the sand, blue for the waves - these are common for New Zealand scenery.

Linking up with Mural Monday.

That's a striking mural, so colorful and geometric. Reminds me of those puzzles that ask you to determine how many triangles there are in it.

I love geometric figures and I adore palm trees, so this mural spoke to me.

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 .

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 ...
