The last few months have raced by yet again and we have had a wonderful time with the family! While we're were house sitting for Jo's neighbours as mentioned in the last blog, we were able to have Josh and Ellie come and stay for a few days which meant we had all our grandchildren together with us. That doesn't happen as often as we would like and was a mission in itself with all the kilometres involved to make it happen. We met Josh and Ellie halfway of a 5 ho...

Here we are, back at Coolah enjoying our beautiful grandchildren again. We agreed to do a Housesit for Jo's neighbours who have gone to Europe for 2 months so we are now living next door to some very special little people!!! We left Elliott Heads after enjoying the company of our friends Bob and Ellen and made a quick trip down to Tweed Heads for a few days where we caught up with Mum. Jo, Phil and the girls were on holiday at Coolangatta, enjoying the warm weat...

Where does the time go? It doesn't seem that long ago that Christmas was just over and we were planning our trip to New Zealand. Now that's behind us and we are making new plans. We had a great time in NZ, managing to get 2 house sits while we were there. We spent the first 4 weeks in a lovely little renovated cottage in Blenheim on the South Island and explored quite a bit of the surrounding areas. With a bus stop right outside we explored as much as we could t...

With Christmas and another successful Housesit behind us, we have said goodbye to family and the Tweed area to find ourselves at the beautiful spot called Darlington Park. A camping area, 24 kms from Beaudesert in the hinterland of the Goldcoast. Quiet now with the school holidays and Australia Day behind us, it's a beautiful lush and green camping area next to the Albert river. We are making the most of the peace and quiet and the hot weather, enjoying swimming ...
