Feather

A day of packing the van.  It would be an easy assumption to make that. after havign packed and unpacked the van so many times, I'd have the process down to a quick one or two hours but ohhhhhh nooooo!  To be fair, I did double up with house cleaning and prepping for the housesitter, but still I managed to fill the best part of all day moving back and forth, in then out, van then house.  The bulk of it is done now - just a few minor tasks to finish tomorrow morning before C arrives then it'll be off and away on what will be a relatively short trip for me.  Somehow it feels like something is missing........dad was a keen caravanner and I think each time I went away in the van he was quietly 'with me' as I knew he would love to be doing it too.
Today's feather was found in the garden - I would love to have played more with it but I knew I had things that were more important to do.
