Funny little blobs some of which were different colours. He wondered if they were edible.<br><a href="http://www.blog.co.uk/media/photo/strawberries/2730181" title="strawberries"><img src="http://data5.blog.de/media/181/2730181_3cc9837c0b_s.jpg" alt="strawberries" hspace="5" vspace="5"></a><br>Next I introduced him to the strawberry plants. No strange blobs on this one, just loads and loads of pretty green leaves. Explained that the fruit would come back next year and that this year's fruit was sitting in a demi-john waiting to turn to wine.<br><a href="http://www.blog.co.uk/media/photo/tinkerbell/2730180" title="tinkerbell"><img src="http://data5.blog.de/media/180/2730180_48117d5132_s.jpg" alt="tinkerbell" hspace="5" vspace="5"></a><br>Wow! Whose this? I introduced Hudson to Tinkerbell. She recently had a makeover at Youth Group and was very pleased to make a new friend. <br><a href="http://www.blog.co.uk/media/photo/ladder/2730209" title="ladder"><img src="http://data5.blog.de/media/209/2730209_6d5daa7040_s.jpg" alt="ladder" hspace="5" vspace="5"></a><br>Nearly time to go in. Just time for one last investigation. A strange contraption - must check that out.<br>Hudson had a little bit of a job getting from rung to rung but soon got the hang of it and was climbing up and down in no time.<br>Phew! Hudson's head was reeling with all the new input. He's off to bed now to dream of the next adventure.<br>Stay tuned... </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://hudsonsadventures.blog.co.uk/2008/08/13/hudson-in-the-garden-4584303/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>tag:hudsonsadventures.blog.co.uk,2008-08-06:/2008/08/06/hudson-s-first-day-in-his-new-home-4549484/Hudsons-adventures2008-08-06T09:38:05+02:002008-08-06T09:38:05+02:00 <p>Hudson’s Adventures – in the beginning…</p> <p>A dear friend recently went off to Australia and asked me to look after her piece of obsidian from Mount Etna, as she thought, and rightly so, that it would be just a little bit too much excess baggage.<br> It’s such a beautiful specimen and deserves to be lovingly looked after.<br> The idea of a blog to record its adventures was a joint effort by a fellow workmate.<br> Although technically, obsidian is glass, for the benefit of this blog, Hudson will be classified as rock.<br> I will be taking Hudson with me on many adventures, dressing him for the occasion, meeting my friends and generally treating him like a member of the family (more so probably – like a foster rock).<br> My dear friend will be able to follow Hudson’s adventures from Australia via this blog.<br> Here he is having his first picture taken after spending a week or so in a warm and comfortable environment. After settling in to his new home, he soon got to grips with the TV remote. What a treat!
