Fun in the sun before the lockdown

Here are some pictures from my last trip up the Magaliesburg before the lockdown. Bright memories to help us through!

Stay safe and strong.

Very nice! I figure once the weather permits we should be able to at least go out into local parks. No risk of crowds.

Thanks Mark. I had hoped to be able to spend a lot of time there while we were anticipating the isolation, but in the end the rules here have been a lot more strict than I had anticipated. My garden at my house is very small, but I have planted quite a lot of the right food plants and we don't use poisons, so there are quite a lot of insects about. It's remarkable how nature comes back if you give it a chance. I think I'll have to develop an interest in carpenter bees and bee flies.

We are not allowed to leave our homes except for groceries and medical emergencies and there are stories of the police being a bit over motivated, so I will definitely stay in my yard. I hope you can still enjoy some of the wonder of nature and still be safe at this time.
