Should we all stand on our own feet? Be honest, be true, make friends, build community, strengthen the natural environment, care for Earth, be at peace, respect one another, & strive to learn? Surely, the only answer is yes. #Sustainability #Progress #Peace #Science #ZeroCorruption 🌏 🇦🇺 🇺🇸 ⚖️ ☮️ ♻️ 🌱
Is America still the one for Australia?
Trump cares little for alliances. So his presidency could well offer a priceless gift to Australia: a rare moment when national self-interest can eclipse sentiment.

Our spring garden path project is movin' on. The backyard & side path should be done by the weekend. It'll be 35°C for the next two days. So, probably only a few early morning hours of work. The raised garden bed opposite the passionfruit box will get an upgrade too, to house a fruiting fig. 🇦🇺 🐨 🌱 ♻️

Our garden path project is ongoing. Slowly getting there, but taking Sunday off. The side path used to become an impassable jungle. It's clear now. But, not sure if there's something we can do with it now? The bed opposite the passionfruit will soon have a fruiting fig tree. 🇦🇺 🐨 🌱

Being able to get fresh food from the backyard, when you need it, is one of the best things about a home veggie garden. IMHO less time & money spent in supermarkets is also a good thing. 🇦🇺 🐨 🌱🥕 🧅 🐝

A few days in now barrowing & levelling rhyolite sand for garden paths. I wish this stuff moved itself, alas my telekinesis skills are sadly lacking. Still the paths are looking good. Can't wait to be done & to get back to guitar & recording songs for next year. 🇦🇺 🐨 🌱 🎸

This year, we're setting more permanent rhyolite paths around the backyard veggie beds. The rhyolite arrived this afternoon, not a cloud to be seen. 100% #BlueSky. A few barrow loads are in and levelled. Lots to go. Hopefully, we'll be done in about a fortnight. #VeggieGardens #BackyardFood 🇦🇺 🐨 ☀️ 🌱

Conservatives, LNP, Tories, GOP, CPC et al., are the privileged minority. Their approach is to con enough of the majority into thinking they'll care about them. They rule by smoke & mirrors. Now in AU, the sun is shining on the truth. LNP hate progress, the planet, even themselves. #AusPol 🇦🇺 🐨 🌏 🌱

In 2022 varroa mite came to AU via Newcastle port. As a result, all honey bees were culled across the Hunter Region & outwards. AU native bees are mostly ok. So, we're planting natives that Aussie bees like & making bee hotels. We'll add a hive at some point. Happy bees. Happy veggie garden. 🇦🇺 🐝 🌱
