Good Morning!! We’re leaving Albany today. Chris’s birthday was a success. He was woken up by Jen, Scott, and Camille singing “Happy Birthday” on the phone. Birthday greetings were sent by emails and Facebook and the SECOND chocolate cake was a success after I burnt the first one. We did a little sight seeing and ended the day with a steak and rib dinner. What more could a man want for his birthday?
it’s a crisp autumn morning, but the skies are blue. It was a pretty good trek we took yesterday. Out to Two People’s National Reserve. The day had been clear and the water and sky, pristine.
We’re off to Walpole today. It’s not far. There, we will see the Valley of the Giants and the large Karri Trees. Similar in sizes to the Giant Redwoods in northern California, from what I hear.
After our lengthy stay here, we have the hot water system fixed, but the Scout is still making funny noises. I think the next move is to fix the diff, not the gear box.
And I’ve figured out that the caravan is NOT suited to heavy rains, so we’ll just have to make sure we have sunny climate for the rest of the trip! (haha, sure Kathy, sure) All in all, it’s been a nice place. This IS a spot that I could live, but there are certain QUEENSLANDERS around here, who are biased. So living anywhere outside that state, is out of the question.
And who says an old dog can’t learn new tricks. I’ve learned how to ‘stitch’ photos to make panoramic shots.
Sometimes a panoramic shot is the only way to get see the whole picture. As you can see, the waters are pristine. And while this photo looks very tropical and warm, I can indeed tell you, that we were rugged up in our coats and beanies as the cold breezes kept the skies clear.
Well, the wagon master has called me. It’s to move.
