'Tis the seaon to be jolly




































































Not long now before I head back to Qld for Christmas with the family, but not before I celebrate the festive season here in Dongara with my friends.
Steve is committed to work at the mine and sadly he won't be joining me for my sojourn back east. Our planned trip to the South West has been postponed due to a change in his shift but we have every intention of making up for it when I return.....MERRY CHRISTMAS to all our blog followers and hope you all enjoy plenty of new adventures in 2010!!!

Heathers Highlights











































After a long early morning flight and 5 hour bus journey, Heather finally arrives from Victoria.
We met in Cooktown and now both live in different states, so we have lots to catch up on.
We spend hours every day talking about our lives, our children s lives and life in general. Our exercise regime starts off at a cracking pace.....even talked her into joining me at the belly dancing classes, but we slack off after awhile...it is the Christmas season afterall!
It's been about 30 years since she's gone to the drive in, so that was definitely on the cards. Although the projectionist stuffed up and we only managed to see one movie, it was still a top night spent with some of the locals.
We did a few trips to check out the beautiful west aussie coastline (featuring the relentless wind) and I introduced her to the joys of opshopping. Shall miss her company.....
