The colourful little junkyard at Mum's school
is my favourite haunt. And while I'm there three days a week, I'm always
looking for a chance to sneak in there and go hunting... There's so
much to observe n' discover in that utterly interesting pile of planks,
old toys, poles, brightly coloured pipes and rods... I could spend hours
in that magical world of junk and still be wanting for more...
Today, as we waited for the last of the kids to leave so we could head for our customary "Teachers Day-Lunch", it had just stopped raining. I sneaked in to that narrow little space. And boy, I went berserk with excitement at the sight of so many drops of rain... each more intriguing than the other... They looked like festive buntings glowing in between all those yellow-blue-orange pipes and rods...
It was only when I heard Mum's voice calling out to me that I raised my head, straightened my back, stretched my aching left arm, shut off my camera and very reluctantly tore myself away from the junkyard...
This enchanting spectacle, these glowing raindrops, could very interestingly be viewed so only when you looked at them from that right angle... By the end of my session here, I did have a super aching back !
But folks, this must have been one of the most rewarding backaches I've had in a long time...
