The broom flowering season in the Maniototo makes for some wonderful photos. Here are a few from around the farmhouse where we are homesitting for two weeks. I may have posted one or two already 🙂





The ruins of a rather substantial shed, close to the boundary fence, with the remains of a fireplace on the right. I seem to have a fixation on this shed, so photographic.




Dave trying his hand with a scythe. The chooks approved.



Bob the rescue sheepdog (found on the roadside with a shattered leg some years ago) is camera-shy.


I love exploring the garden …









In a few weeks’ time there will be roses absolutely everywhere.


Lovely photos Nancy. What a great place to be.
Thanks, Diana. We feel very privileged.
