Newcastle days....

We have been riding and walking and exploring - this is the nature reserve track between us and the bluff. Beautiful coastal heath and fabulous views to the ships on the horizon... which i must say I also love as it reminds me only of here in Newy...



Saw 3 fabulous things in one day on Thursday last:
1. a SEAL! popping up at Nobby's beach - who knew!!
2. a helicopter (not a Johnson) landing on deck of coal ship exiting port (to collect the pilot I assume - that would be my profession of choice!)
3. a WHALE breaching as I walked back along the breakwall
MAGIC MAGIC MAGIC and none of it photographed anywhere but my mind.


Rexy enjoyed red nose day and we enjoyed him.


see you when your legs are straighter

eeeeeek !

Sorry it has been some time
We seem to have developed complacency with camera, and me with b-logging. apologies. Here are some photos to make up...

Enjoying life in Newy - spent Sunday at a livesites event where Rex ogled over chickens and 'touch' a little pony. Pony was 'touch' by most of the under-threes in the Hunter that morning....



Big news - we are 'landholders' - block next to the beach at Dudley is there for the dreaming about now. Here are photos of corner and the 'dance of the theodolite' Rich and Matty


This photo of Rexy on the fire-trail at front of block - kicking around with the dog in the puddles... The start of things to come...


Rexy has now had a SERIOUS haircut - here is before / after (which you know I love!)



Here is a photo - loooouuuunnnging on a new chair I picked up for $5 from a house we DIDN't win at auction - went back and splurged on the excellent goodies... Rex looking as though he may doff his cap (in between mouthfuls of rockmelon) and hitch his britches...


Caught up with some mates from mexico in the hunter valley - how cute is Oliver Pook?
