I Saw...

I saw this groovy little pup yesterday, I managed to get a few photos when we stopped at the traffic lights.

I really don't like seeing dogs on the back of utes as they are very vulnerable if there's an accident.

But at least this owner was protecting the pups eyes against the strong winds when the car is moving...

 

A Very Brief Stop...

A very brief stop at at Neil Hawkins Park, because by the time I arrived it was unbearably hot. 

Too hot for walking.

The views out across Joondalup Lake were refreshing given the heat. 

There was a small family of corella's larking about on the grass as I headed back to the comfort of my cars air-conditioning. 

I had hoped that I had timed it right to get a walk in, being so far away from home it's hard to read the weather. 

It's just over an hour's drive to Joondalup so I was slightly disappointed, with the heat so intense I decided to revise my plan for the day and went to the Wanneroo Art Gallery instead...

 

It's Always...

It's always a pleasure popping into to visit Mickey my adorable chihuahua friend. 

One can't have enough furry friends in their life...

 

A Bag Of Rice...

A Bag of Rice for a Saturday Child seemed a rather unusual title for an art exhibition. That was until I read the artist statement.

"When I was nine years old standing next to my Pua Pua (grandmother) at a temple in Canning Vale, she pointed to a sculpture of Naga - a Burmese dragon and told me she bought me from my mother for a bag of rice. It was, she said, a sign of good fortune for a child born on a Saturday."

With those words in my mind I found the exhibition had a disjointed energy, and I found myself a little off kilter. Some of the pieces I found somewhat disturbing, I left feeling unsettled...
