A Rural Father’s Day

This week Debbie has set the one word Sunday challenge as rural. As it coincided with Father’s Day I thought I would combine the two. It’s been a while since I saw both my parents, coming up to a year. I was lucky enough to have them both with me for almost five months last year, because of Covid they were stuck here for much longer than planned.

I asked them to artfully arrange themselves on some hay bales at a winery we visited

“I’ve got a hole in one”
“Tree Hugging”

Still like a boy!

Hi A nanny of two and a mum of two adult children, mum to two fur babies and wife of one. I love to travel and up until recently travelled the world, now exploring Western Australia! I play bridge, board games, read dance and blog in my spare time.

    1. I had them posing all over the place and telling them how to look as well! They look like models for a senior’s magazine

    1. They loved their trips to Australia. Sadly they are now too old to make that long trip, but we had some great times with them

  6. Your parents look like they were having fun!
    It’s been 26 months since I last saw my parents and sisters… Looking forward to travelling next year.

    1. Thanks Sarah, maybe next year some time. In the meantime just have to Skype them and urge them to remain healthy and take care.

  10. Oh nice looking couple and your parents still look young and healthy! Happy Father’s day to the fathers in your life. I don’t know why Australia celebrates in September…so do you celebrate it with the rest of the world?

    1. Thanks Teresa. Yes very lucky that they are still healthy. We don’t really celebrate it as such anymore, we went out one time and swore never to do it again, everywhere so packed and we waited ages for food.

    1. Thanks Bernadette, yes they’re very young at heart. I haven’t seen them for a year because of Covid and hoped to be in the UK to celebrate my dad’s 9Oth, maybe next year 🤔
