Seniors Day Out - SDO
🎨 SENIORS DAY OUT – A STEP BACK IN TIME 🏡
In May, we visited the McCahon House Museum in Titirangi — and what a fascinating experience it was! It’s truly incredible to see how the McCahon family lived and created in such a humble, compact space, nestled in native bush and full of creative energy. 🌿✨
We explored a powerful collection of photographs, voice recordings, video footage, and personal writings that brought this iconic Kiwi artist’s story to life.
And in the photo — yes, those are the boys’ bunk beds, which astonishingly had only three walls, opening out onto the bush. That’s right — the fourth wall was nature itself. 🌲
We began the day with a lovely lunch at Deco Eatery, where good food and great company made it a day to remember. 🍽️💬
Every outing brings fresh perspectives, meaningful connection, and shared memories.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
