This is the world according to me…in photos, words, stories and sometimes even poetry. It’s a fun creative outlet, and as a bonus I get to meet some amazing bloggers from around the world.
My aim is to make you smile, educate you in some way, maybe inspire you and to share my world, while learning about your world.
I love an adventure and I always seem to find one – or it finds me! It keeps me feeling young :)
I’m living life to the fullest and embracing the challenges that come with midlife! I’m now a grandmother x 4, and I am as happy as a pig in mud.
Please take your time exploring my world – it’s full of stories, travels, adventures, photos and love.
I appreciate your visit, your likes and any comments or feedback you care to leave me. Feel free to share the love 😊

Hi, Deb – I so loved following your travel posts for this series. Your photography not only shows your immense creativity, it also reveals the soul of what you were trying to capture – and delightfully displays your joie de vivre (which is completely contagious). Thank you for joining in (and running with it) and for the shoutouts!

Hi Deb,
I know about gums, but expected to see the blossoms on the tree…what a surprise to see them carpeting the path.
Incredible color!

Yes I think they started on the tree 🙂

I love gum blossom – except when we lived in our last house on a bush block – they used to shower down all over our pool cover and were a pig to clean up – still beautiful when they were on the trees – just really messy in places where I didn’t want them to be! We get mainly creamy coloured ones in WA.

they’re gorgeous. We have all the fire trees and poincianas finishing at the moment so also carpeting the roads with red.

How pretty. We have these trees in South Africa but not in such abundant quantities. They call them Australian Firetrees locally.

They are just lovely aren’t they? How interesting to hear them called that in South Africa thanks for that insight!

Hi, Deb – First I needed to enlarge your picture as much as my computer screen would allow. When that didn’t work, and with the prose you gave, I needed to look up what ‘Red Flowering Gums” were. Corymbia ficifolia! I feel so much smarter now! Thank you for sharing this. 🙂

Wow! My sister and I looked up the correct name for them, (and you’ve got it right), but decided to use the more common name instead. I’m very impressed with your research, but not that surprised at all!! The sight was gorgeous in the early morning light. Thanks so much 😊 for visiting with us.
