time for a bite...

table feature at the Heritage Farm cafe on Churchill Island...
The island is just offshore from the Mornington Peninsula...
We enjoyed lunch there yesterday...
(The day was mostly sunny and warm - Yahooooo...)
I had the best fettucini and sun-dried tomatoes that I ever tasted...
My hubby said he had the best hamburger and chips he had ever tasted...
And, of course, we both had a great mug of cappuccino...

sign enigma...

These signs are in the Hillview Community Reserve in Dromana...
The proposed leash free area for dogs has been on the council agenda for some years
(approx since 2010)
- though the sign is only about a year old...
(NOTE: the sign says off-lease and not off-leash... hmmm)
The second sign indicates that this area is utilised for bike riders and walkers
who wish to meet the challenge of climbing to Arthurs Seat
(highest point on the Mornington Peninsula)
via a rather steep track...
(It is a very popular track - especially at weekends...)
Meanwhile, there is also a BMX track on the drawing board - but no sign for that one...
