The Front Door Is Open Again

With days getting to 28 degrees and overnight the very high teens, the front door has been thrown open again!

Plenty of bike riding going on at the moment with absolutely ideal conditions. Right now in a warm corner of our backyard it is into the low 30's and the humidity is under 40% making things extremely comfortable. This morning the pool was 23.5 for my post bike ride swim so it was definitely refreshing when I jumped in.

Monday night was the 3rd Community Association Meeting for the year. It was a committee meeting so only committee members were there. This usually means a huge post to go onto the website the next day. This kept me busy.

Trish and I went to visit Fred in Nambour hospital. He was looking frail, he was rambling in his speech but seemed really glad to see us. I related the contents of a couple of emails I had received from people remembering some of the antics we used to get up to. He asked me to stop telling the stories as laughing can be painful for him.

After staying for an hour or so with Fred we stopped at Beefy's Pies near the Ettamogah Pub on the way home for a pie for lunch. This company is an award winning pie making company and the pies are sensational, expensive and huge. We had a small tea last night.

I am feeling better but still have a heavy chest and some congestion. To ensure all bases are covered I am booked into to see a cardiac guy as I have become a little short of breath at times. I am also to see my ENT specialist tomorrow morning for an ear tidy up. I will run my stuffy head problem past him as well.

We are off to a nice little place in town called "Forty Five 51". 6 of us going and using an online coupon special for a special deal. The special includes and entree and main meal for 2 for $42. We will meet at 5:15 for pre-dinner drinks, head off to the restaurant then back again this time for post dinner drinks. Needless to say apart from a 'free' glass of wine, the drinks are expensive at the restaurant.
