Armistice Day New Zealand 2018






This year is the 100th anniversary
of the end of World War 1.

A cross has been planted
on the grass in front of the
Auckland War Memorial Museum.
Each cross represents a New Zealand soldier
who lost their lives in that horrific theatre of War
18,700 poor souls.






I felt an extreme sense of loss
walking beside these crosses
thinking about the futility of war.
We shall always remember them.


I pray that this small boy will never
have the horrific experience of war.




Take care and
be kind to one another

Glimpses of Spring 2018





Spring 
is
waking to the sound of birdsong each morning
and
looking out through my kitchen window
to see my garden coming alive again!




Spring 
is
Rosebuds unfolding into
beautiful blooms




Spring
is
Cherry blossom trees in the park
and
carpets of petals beneath the trees.




Wishing
you all a happy and enjoyable weekend
in your little corner of the world!


Take care and
be kind to one another
à bientôt

Shane
