DAY 15 // Reinvention

Farm Update for Day 15..here we go.

Today we did our usual, but instead of just me and Camille out there (and sometimes Ian) we've had Rick the last couple of days helping us out.

Rick is a rough looking dude, maybe about 55-60 years old with shoulder length greyish-brown straggly hair. He wears a brown leather hat with an owls feather in it and jeans that are virtually falling off his ass (hah). It's been funny having little chats with this guy because his aussie accent is as thick as they come..Camille just gives him blank stares half the time and I just laugh. The first time we met yesterday (monday) he introduced himself and continued to tell me how he was feeling a bit hungover from "drinkin' me bloody goon" the night before. Nice. When Cam or I hit the water hose and we swear while it sprays water every, he just laughs and says "good on ya mate - Ahh don't worry I'll fix er' up before Ian sees". It's nice to have a different character around to spice things up a bit out here.

Creative tid-bit tonight is just a quote that I really like by Henry Rollins. So much strength in his words along with so much truth. Cut yourself out of Stone. Brilliant.

Enjoy and Goodnight friends!
Until Tomorrow xo

DAY 7 // It's Monday, I Need a Coffee

Hi friends,
Its late so I'm going to keep this short and sweet as I have our usual early start on the fields tomorrow. There's no really farm update today other than..It's monday, and we chipped weeds. THE END.

As for my creative bit, I was a little stumped at first as to what I was going to do today... but I had remembered a post I saw on pinterest awhile back about Coffee in Australia and I thought, since it's monday I'd design a little fun graphic with the same concept as the one I saw, but with a completely cooler and more playful look.

I love coffee, and that is all thanks to my pops. The smell of coffee is always lingering in our house and a pot always seems to be brewed and waiting there to be consumed. For me, with plenty of sugar..even hot chocolate most the time. But when I'm out and about, a double double is how we do it. Canadians love double doubles, and we love Tim Hortons. It's shit, but its cheap and it does the trick.
Well, try asking a Australian barista for a double double.... blank stare. Even the words "just a drip coffee please" confuses them, so here ya go dad, get to know the coffee lingo before you come visit me in the land down unda !
Goodnight, Thanks for reading!

Until Tomorrow xo
