Over the past week, we took a break and headed off to Gawler for some time out with friends.

.

We enjoyed a night of bush dancing, went to a cooking demonstration, tackled the shops for some 'retail therapy', and us girls even had an afternoon where we disappeared for a quiet coffee, cake and a visit to the 2nd hand book shops.    And of course, there was time to simply sit and chat, and to relax.

.

But, all good things must end, and after only a few days, it was time to head home, and begin catching up on work, emails and phone calls.

.

It was a lovely break, and we look forward to the next time we're able to get away for a few days. 

.

And, as amazing as it seems - Welcome to August!    How the year is flying by!
