Easter Tidings and trip preparations almost complete. 1 April 2024


Phew! And that’s no April Fools blog title either.

The Easter break couldn’t have more conveniently placed. It coincides with end of school term and we leave on 5 Esses trip on 3/4 April.

I was very unprepared and have used the time off work to get lists finalised and cases and cubes packed.

There were a range of other household task to tick off including lawns and edges, cutting up some dead fallen branches etc. this almost all fitted in mine and my neighbours green bins.

The last of the branches were annoying me so I decided to christen the Fire pit Dad and I created a couple of years back. I also gave the Fire stick we made from a long hunted for bonnet prop. a couple of years ago a whirl too.

Fire pit and fire stick in action.
It got hot! Made from old railway line pieces sourced on our COVID tour of Mallee region in 2021.
Here’s the Ute outside Mildura from which I procured the bonnet prop.

I’ve also had the chance to visit a few folks. It’s so nice to have some time to do …whatever I feel like or nothing.

I’ve spent an inordinate amount of time fiddling with this blog. Not totally happy but better than before.

So that’s about it from me until we are underway.
