Minutes after picking Mills up from quarantine in Sydney a month after leaving her at Heathrow. Tam's driving Clare & Shanes extremely cool and ancient white Ford Falcon panel van, with a bench seat in the front - just right for Jen, Milly and Tam to sit together in the front. Many tears and hugs before setting off on the 600 mile journey back to Blue Knob & Milly's new home.
After settling in, we discover Milly is fascinated by the tiny lizards in all the undergrowth at the end of the patio - a favourite sunny spot, she can spend hours studying the strange little critters and enjoying the warmth.
Milly takes a stroll across the lawn, past the fire pit and off into the gully for a romp chasing birds.
Past the newly created no-dig salad bed - hopefully we'll soon have salad leaves galore....and we'll probably find out about Aussie snails and slugs!
Here's Milly, up the drive....check out the bromeliads in the tree...
...in the paddock with views of the mountain 'Blue Knob'
Back home ....
And a snuggle with Tam
And then the daily tick check - Milly loves to run wild in the undergrowth and bushes around the garden, BUT she always picks up ticks and so its a daily ritual to check her and remove any.....and as for the risks she takes with her only remaining eye....
Milly would love to hear from you - please post a comment or two!
