Gone to the beach

Today is Friday ,another week of my life has just passed by .The decision has been made to head down to Ocean Grove for the weekend ,I will leave early as a trip to the blood bank is in my plans.On arrival some area beautification will take place then It will be time to relax and await the later arrival of  the rest of the family.With the arrival of the family also mean the arrival of Coco and Fluffy dog, yes we allow animals to stay as well. Saturday sees the ladies in a frenzy as it is time to hit the shops in Geelong,with there speedy departure my grandson Cooper and I are left home alone to fend for ourselves.With not much to do and all day to do it in we jump in the ute and head to Point Lonsdale to take a few photos around the lighthouse and surrounds with Coopers new camera .Talk about the paparazzi ,yes we sure did get some photos .On the road again this time it is to Faggs hardware store to obtain a bit of stuff  for some minor repairs around the place also a snack at the sausage sizzle .We return home and wait for the ladies to return from the shops .As the dogs start to stir we soon know the reason, yes the ladies have returned with lots of shopping .It is time for a cool drink so hoo roo

First shot fired

The jobs on,yes the plans for the Kimmberly trip are being made and laid. Departure date is scheduled for 18th of April and arrival date back home is around Saturday the10th of May, this is the start of a true adventure to some of our  remotest country also the most harshest.Hopefully me and my 3 travelling companions return unscathed.The first 3 days will be taken up with a rapid drive through the middle of this vast land of ours to Kununurra where the real fun begins.Three nights to be spent at this location ,with a drive toWyndham also El Questro station.Hairy Dogs Fishing camp has also attracted my attention ,a visit there could be on the cards to try to catch the elusive big Barra. After heading south to HallsCreek taking in the Bungle Bungles and Wolf Creek crater.We will be then going to FitzroyCrossing Derby then to Broome for a few days.As we push south toMarble Bar Port Headland and beyond ,Exmouth will show up on our radar ,few days in this region and it time to keep moving.Kalbari and Geraldton soon pass us by but Perth is our next place for a bit of  R&R.We are now about to start heading east for our beloved Victoria. Kalgoolie should be our next stopover for a visit to the super pit and Patty Hannans pub, gotta go that big open space called the Nullabour plains awaits our arrival.The great Australian bight has also taken the fancy of these 4 travellers so some time will be spent at the lookouts. Coffin Bay the oyster capital of S.A will also be targeted by us as well as Port Augusta ,hope to be able to cage dive with the white pointer sharks but that is to be confirmed at a later date.Many thanks to my followers ,I hope you enjoy the rest of my blogs leading up to this great adventure

Race results from Wyche races

How good am I ,I found four investor for my radical plan to fleece the bookies,they included 3sister I nlaws and a out of tower named Gay.With my fellow gamblers in tow we head for the track to plan our next move.The suggested entry fee to this intended heist is 20.00dollars a pop,we'll to cut along story short things did not go plan and pretty soon there were some long faces at our table and we were down 4zip.These investors were not looking for my blood yet but I sensed it wouldn't be long,I slivered out of this situation for a while to gather my thoughts ,but no ideas were forthcoming so I placed my self  at there mercy and hoped for the best.With no new plans or ideas we keep to our word  a battled away at the last 4 races......but still no luck.Yes we crashed 8zip ,to the credit of my fellow investor I would like to thank all of them for making this another great family day out,so again girls thank you
