Night lights


I've been looking to see if Greymouth has any extra lights up in town or Christmas but so far this tree light hanging from a street light is all I've found. I might have to stop off a few more times on the way home from work at night in the next week to see if anymore have  been added.

Does seem a bit sparse so close to Christmas.

Aren't those lights hanging across the street in the background Christmas decorations too?

Hey you know one light is better than no lights.
Looks like classic small town mainstreet. I like it!

Thick clouds up there!
Blame it on the scarcity of street lights. However, far down the street there appears to be an array of lights that more than make up for the paucity at this end.

That little tree is all alone. It needs some company.

It is quite puzzling why the street, which looks like a main street, is not more adorned for the Holidays.

I love the understated simple view. Christmasy yet quiet. :)

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. Arched ceilings dominate the former congregational high stud space beyond the foyer and numerous picturesque windows provide a light, airy feel and an ambience many office buildings lack. 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 ...
