Christmas Day.

Christmas Day and I am all alone.  Dinner was spaghetti and lentils and veg, with some lemon tarts; later some Nalifka-  my dad used to make it - cherries in brandy with sugar, put out in the sun;  just a small jar for today, 2 jars for later.  A kind friend gave me cherries and I made jars of jam  and some preserved by water bathing not pressure cooking.

I keep Christmas cards from many years past and string them up, see photo.  In my humble caravan.

Thankfully, the weather here where I am in country nsw, it is not too hot 35 degrees C.

But in the blue Mountains there are 3 fires out of control;  not much news, just some pictures....

I used to work in Blackheath, doing bush regeneration..... I have friends, family....

Terrifying times, and people still cope and care for each other.
