Busy Days

The wind has been out of the south and southeast for well over a week now and this has meant moderate temps for us here on the Sunshine Coast. Overnight temps have been below average by a couple of degrees. Today the wind is more north easterly and this indicates things are about to warm up. This morning the pool was 24 degrees but it was up to 26 degrees yesterday afternoon. Temps are forecast to be in the low 30's for most of the First Test match between Australia and England in Brisbane and no rain is forecast. Nights are warming up too.

A few things were put off till Trish 'went to Melbourne' and these are now being done. The new mattress was delivered, Trish's new bike is in for a first month check, the side fence has been 'painted' (and looks OK don't you think?), Library books have been returned, lawns have had their first mow for several weeks and Doctor and Chiro appointments have been attended to. There were quite a few DVD's I had copied which Trish wasn't excited about watching so I have watched those and spent much of yesterday ($1 DVD Borrow day) refilling 6 empty rewritable DVD's. The new external writer came in very handy.

Work continues on the new access road with lots of landscaping now going on. There is even going to be a concrete pathway following the new road.

By the way, first steak on the new Weber BBQ (it works the same way as a Weber Kettle BBQ and you cook with the lid down) was very impressive!

Trish and I took 6 kids away with us to India in the mid '90's when I was Principal of Langwarrin P.S. Daniel was one of those kids. Here he is seen 'on site' in Dubai. Thanks for the photo Terry and Jan.
