The sound of a Victa lawnmower makes me think of many Saturdays and Sundays at my childhood home and at my granparents' homes. My Dear Old Dad must have put in a lot of hours mowing lawns in his life - his own and others.
Rest in peace, Dad.

Rest in peace, Dad.
Such a quintessential Aussie photo...and experience. Good V theme too.
ReplyDeletePoor old Dad. Because his parents were older than most, he ended up looking after their home and garden long after he moved out of home to be married.
