A post... at long last

So I know we have been mega slack and have not posted anything on here for over a year (yikes... how time flies...) You can blame Facebook if you like. But I like the idea of an online diary and I don't think Facebook quite cuts it for that. And we understand if no-one is even checking this anymore. I know I would have given up!!

My nephew Chase is 14 months old now and has started walking. It is the greatest thing to be greeted by him, all smiles and walking towards you. Here he is with his Uncle Geoff, watching the footy. Chase is holding a massive anzac biscuit (for his size anyway) but managed to get through the entire thing. :-)


Last weekend we went on an impromptu camping trip to Inskip Peninsula with a couple of Geoff's dentistry friends. We were camping pretty much on the dunes and the view was spectacular.


The water was pretty much flat with gentle rolling waves and the view out to the coloured sands was pretty cool.

Geoff caught two bream, two whiting and a dart but they were all very under the legal limit. On the Sunday morning we headed to Bullocks Point and fished off a very old, very rickety jetty. We watched as a young boy pulled in quite a few fish. Beginners luck I say!


You know you've had a good break when two days feels more like a week. :-) We are hoping to go camping again in September so I'm looking forward to that.

Hope everyone is well. :-)

Yay!! I still haven't posted the "part 2" of the Whistler blog so don't feel too bad. :)

Love the photos of Chase and your camping trip. Chase's hair is getting so long now. He's so cute.

Where are you thinking of going for the September trip again? I know you told me last night but I've forgotten already! hehe

Love Bron

Wow, so quick with the comment! Anyone would think you're on a RDO or something, Bron? :-)

We were thinking of going to our usual haunt at Bundjalung, but it's a bit far (equal distance I suppose to Inskip but that was a mammoth trek we wouldn't want to do too often for just a weekend). We are currently investigating closer places. :-)

Good to know you still check this blog. :-) Will try and keep it updated...
