Having some time out in the cold

Went to my Mum and Dad’s for the long weekend just been.  Dad’s appendix burst on Thursday/ Friday last week so was in Wagga hospital while we were there.  Saw Grandad in Hospital, Aiden didn’t like Grandad sitting up in the bed so was hiding behind Jase’s legs, he wanted Grandad to be lying down.  We helped Uncle Kev and Gran feed the sheep and keep the home fires burnin literally.  Jase drove the tractor to move round bales out to the sheep, all the tracks were boggy so the boys had fun doing a bit of sideways 4WDing.

Wed we visited Sam, Brian, and jack Kurtz on their farm.  We had a ball playing trains and walking in the creekbed.  Sam threw rocks. sticks and cow paddies into the creek and tried a few times to bury his gumboots in the poo and mud.  Brian had fun with the boys and loved running outside. Wed night I went to tea with the bushwalking group.  Am going to try to organise to walk on the land near the drip which is leased by Sam’s family until august.  There is a beautiful swimming hole and a cave where Brett Whitely did some paintings.  Am going walking there with Sam, Angela and Annette and the kids on Wed next week.

Am currently doing AF training with the RFS (all weekend).
