Spring's coming.

 I haven't been blogging much lately. I've had a cataract op so my eye is still on the mend but the fortnight prior to the op I also had a cluster of migraines. Not fun believe me. I have checked in a couple of times but haven't been up to commenting, so I apologise for that. I really need to wait until I'm discharged and I'm able to see properly to type much. I still have a little double vision and some blurring but otherwise I seem to be healing well.

Anyway, I thought I'd post a few spring blossom and flower pics I've taken while out and about when the weather is nice. Not many though. Camellias seem to be blooming well just now. And the garden is my daughter Jacqui's.

Your new town - Tuesday 4

 Welcome to Tuesday 4 begun  by Toni Taddeo and kept up in her memory. We are so glad to have you joining in!   You can make your post as elaborate or as simple as you wish. The object really is to share with others.

This week let us talk about a new town/city/village that you are going to create.   It is brand new.

1.  You are establishing a new community.    Where will it be located? What will the surroundings be like? Describe the environment and the weather which you get to create.

Not too big or too small. Large enough to have all the shops and facilities that we need but small enough to have a community feel. It would definitely be located further north of here but I would like it to be near the sea or a lake so I could take walks on the beach. The weather would be temperate, not so cold it snows but not too hot either - but it's nice to experience all the seasons.

2.  You are in charge of naming this new town.   What will you call it and is it a town, village , city? Is it country, suburb or city? 

We're in a town and it would be named Mackburgh.

3.   What features will your new town have? Library? parks? restaurants?  Rural or metropolitan area?

My town is in a rural area but with access to a larger city and has good public transport for those times city visiting is necessary. There would definitely be a library, books are expensive to buy and childrens parks as well as spaces for teenagers to skate, bike or whatever. A couple of supermarkets and primary and secondary schools as well as daycare facilities for babies and the elderly. There would be motels and a hotel and of course a restaurant or two, most of us like to eat out occasionally.

4.  Your new town has a high school and it is your job to name it.  What name do you give it?

The high school is called The Aurora Secondary School and it's colours would be red and blue.

Join in the fun at Tuesday 4: Your New Town

And that's it for today. 

Keep well, and enjoy life.
