A family run campsite near Viver, Valencia, Spain

And I urge all people, to warn and give advice to the idle, encourage the discouraged and worried, help the weak, be patient with them all.

1Thessalonians 5 : 14

A family are painting and repairing various areas of this well-loved camp site getting ready for the “busy time”. A married son is looking after the shop and painting the swimming pool while his wife creaosols the planters. There is a lady of mature age, and she is getting a little irate with everyone. You see her here, there and everywhere with a bucket, a broom, a scraper.  She seems to know what to say where and what to do where. l imagine she is the owner or the owner’s wife. She has a proper workers pinafore on . The others are  in casual swim wear and / or  T shirts. The site has a number of caravans and tents all well secured and ready for their owners to return to and enjoy. All homely, cool  and under the pines.

This morning I was sure I heard peacocks and here  he is  a pure white one.

A peacock has too little in its head, too much in its tail.

Swedish Proverb

Poor peacock but it does have “longness”:

long neck, long feathers, long legs and a crown  .       

White peacocks are not  albinos.  They have a genetic mutation that is known as Leucism, which causes the lack of pigments in the plumage. What a privilege to see this bird but living with chickens …

The key to everything is patience.  You get the chicken by hatching the egg not smashing it.

  And

What the hen said when she saw the scrambled egg … my children are mixed up..
