anyone who cares

The weather is glorious.

It is too late (full moon was 20 April) to finish pruning my olive trees.

The grass under the trees was cut today.

The work in the cantina continues slowly but beautifully.

The painting has come to a bit of a halt.

I was a guide today.

The flowers at the railway station monument are looking healthy but were happy to be watered. Today's visitors were impressed with the work the students had done. (Later they kept up what is becoming a kiwi tradition and helped me to pull out more weeds at the St Angelo Peace Bell site).

As we left the station traffic was held up by a procession of singing and laughing cyclists. One wore a peace flag like a cape. There was nothing to indicate who they were or what they were doing. I ran after them and asked one what their rally was about. They were promoting the use of cycles instead of cars in Cassino. They were, they said, "anyone who cares".

I got into my car and negotiated the chaotic holiday weekend traffic, vehicles three wide on a two-lane road with no lane marking. I too could have been on my bike singing happy summertime songs...

I am very very tired, but happily so.

Goodnight... but first a little piece of chocolate...
