Visiting Albury

July 7th, 2008 · 4 Comments

I left home on Saturday morning, heading towards Albury/Wodonga, with no real idea how to get there. I can read though luckily so I just followed the signs. I was staying at my old friend Glenn’s on Saturday night and had intended to visit Kat first in Albury. I had no idea how far away […]

Pa’s Water Crisis Solution

May 1st, 2008 · 2 Comments

In the last year of his life, my pa told me he’d made an appointment to see our local politician about an idea he had for solving the water problem. He told me to keep it to myself because others would say it couldn’t be done, but he’d thought it through and believed it was a viable option. […]

Set and Forget - Bill Paying (& son returns from Cairns)

April 19th, 2008 · 2 Comments

I don’t like having to pay bills. Not just because I don’t always want to part with my money, but because it’s boring. I have most things set up to work automatically now and I probably am saving a fortune in late fees, because I would always put off looking at it.   
I have just waited […]

Wilson’s Prom Yesterday

January 7th, 2008 · No Comments

Wilson’s Prom is about 2 1/2 hours drive away from my home, the way I drive. Yesterday I drove there from Latrobe Valley via Yarram and returned via Mirboo North. I enjoyed the drive through the various countryside in Gippsland. It was sunny yet cool and very pleasant driving. The coastline and the hills were […]

The Adelaide Part of My Trip

January 5th, 2008 · No Comments

Arriving in Adelaide on Friday 19th December, I checked into the Youth Hostel I had booked online and was pleasantly surprised. The Adelaide Central Youth hostel is a great place to stay. I have loved my stays in Youth Hostels and I don’t think I would ever stay in a motel again, if there were […]

Museum Trip

August 26th, 2006 · No Comments

I went to the museum on Tuesday, as I said a couple of posts ago. Here is my favourite couple of pictures. I love the red flying horse. I think it is a symbol for a petrol company or something, but it is too beautiful to be that. I think my Uncle Jack used to […]

Auntie Angela

An amazing coincidence today, the very same person I was referring to in my last post, came to visit. I looked up my planner and her name was there. I remembered I was intending to take my daughter to Echuca to visit Angela this mid-term break but had forgotten about it.Joh Blogs: Camping on the […]

Power

June 23rd, 2006 · No Comments

We are off on our holiday tomorrow. So today is about packing up everything to go. We were meant to go yesterday but I spent the day trying to work out the power problem with my home.
We apparently have a shortage of electricians so I was unable to get one yesterday. It was probably a […]
