FAVOURITE THINGS FRIDAY - PICNICS

As usual I'm linking up with Shay for Favourite Things Friday.

PICNICs

There was a time when our children were small that we would pack up the car and toodle off for a picnic most weekends.

All we needed was a grassy spot in the shade of a tree somewhere in the country

or by the sea

where we could set the table with our special cloth,

put out plates and cups, thermos and soft drink, bread rolls and BBQ chicken

and

 r. e . l . a . x . x. x . .  . . . .

Now there's just the two of us ( Darby and Joan !!)

 we don't do it often enough but recently,

on the spur of the moment,

we grabbed all the necessary and sped off for a short visit to Bribie Island about an hour and a half 's drive from home.

It was mid-week and not a brilliant day but the sun came out

and so did the camera.

The wild life was co-operative

and it was oh so peaceful.

Ahhhhhhh..... we should do this more often.

Cheers.
