Loading ...Oh it is Autumn already
And yes, the Easter photos are on the way…just very slowly, typically western Australian laid back style. 
This is us canoeing on the Blackwood River in the area around Nannup, which is a few hours south of Perth.
And the following two pictures are taken especially for my dad.
We are in the middle (or almost at the end) of Autumn. Back home (no.1) in Germany I used to have an African Oak in my front yard, which I pictured in an older post here. Every fall season my dad and I used to rake and rake and fill garden bags of leaves. Week after week, until every leaf has left the large tree.
Same here in Perth. The tree is a sweet gum, but the leaves are very similar in thickness and size to Oak leaves. I am raking and raking, but not filling bags, because everything goes straight to the garbage bin. After two hours of raking, it looks like I didn’t do any work. Birds are playing in the tree, making leaves loosen and fall, and the wind is doing the rest.
Well, another funny thing is that we are the only house in the beginning of our street that has such a large leaf tree….same as back in Germany, where “our” leaves were blown to the neighbour properties, and everyone knew from where all the leaves are coming.
Somehow I took this piece of “massive tree with a lot of raking and cleaning up work during Autumn” from Germany with me.

Hey, don’t think you can get rid of me so quickly.
I am here! 
Just need to organise my head with new blog stories…I’m quite out of form… 
I am already organising my photos, but I needed to do some updates with my web space first…deleting stuff, making backups, maybe moving completely…
But I read every comment. And it makes me happy to read you. 
Sorry for the long quietness…
