One Last Thing to Try

With our American friends soon to leave after a glorious month in Oz, we had to cram a few more things in, like one last day at school with the kids, one last night at the Urunga Pub, and a try at the Didgereedoo. Caroline and Wayne invited the girls to come by and see Caroline's amazing fabric art workshop in her home. Visit her website at carolinesharkey.com and be completely 'wow-ed.' The next thing we knew, everyone was showing up who had or hadn't met the girls yet, and out came the instruments! We all had a go, and I must say, my years playing tenor sax didn't really give me an edge! It's a cross between playing a trombone, a kazoo, and a PVC drain pipe! It's easier than surfing, so far, so that's good.

Now the house is very very quiet. Ross is home from his trip to Cairns with Ellen, Pat, and the boys. School is back for both of us; no more sore throats. And Pat is catching up on more laundry and lawn bowls! We are so blessed to have wonderful friends and colleagues and family! It's been incredible to share some of our adventures here with them.

Now we can't wait to share our new friends and beautiful beaches with Aaron and Jolyn next month!
