Placed on hold

The on again, off again traveller is back in town. So I won’t say this is the last climb in the south west of Western Australia before Rongy and Sarah hit the road. I have done that before and been proven wrong to many times. Plus we have made tentative arrangements to get out againContinue reading “Placed on hold”

Motion pictures

Dog walking doesn’t stop at Peppy Beach just because it was Christmas day. I again joined them, jumping in at a new location. But the ground was pretty ordinary and there were no extra presents waiting for me under the water, other than thick patches of stingers. Heading back after the walk and snorkel theContinue reading “Motion pictures”

Ending on a colourful note

With time on my hands and limited options for driving anywhere, it has been time to explore a few more local sights. Since my last day at work for 2023 on Thursday, I’ve managed to get into the water five times. Each time sampling a new part of the coastline off Peppy Beach, and inContinue reading “Ending on a colourful note”

A healthy level of nervousness

Lisa and my time was all above-board this weekend. Lisa had suggested we book onto a keelboat sailing course, to provide me with some prior hands on experience before my big trip. It was a bit uncertain as to whether the course would go ahead. Being the only ones booked for this weekend, and theyContinue reading “A healthy level of nervousness”

A quick dip

The sting in the tail today was not so much from our pesky local jellies. There are being found in increasing numbers, patrolling the shallows of our local beach. But with care it is possible to navigate your way through them safely. It was that I was not able to join in with the funContinue reading “A quick dip”

From every angle

Mikey is back in town for a while, having made the journey from over east again. That means there are more opportunities to get out, as he is always keen and motivated. Having arrived with a tick list in mind, which included a few lines at Moses Rocks. More than a few in fact, enoughContinue reading “From every angle”

Lucky last

It was that bit harder to motivate myself to get up. But having promised Lisa a cuppa in bed, before she need to get up and head down for her Saturday morning bob in the ocean, I forced myself. Even though I didn’t feel like being vertical, once up I’m not the sort of personContinue reading “Lucky last”

All in one

After an attempt by a colleague to give me extra work “to prevent me from heading to the beach”, I did the only thing I could do. After all it was a go-a-bit-slower, work from home Friday and I was feeling a bit fried. Plus there is nothing better than a dip in the oceanContinue reading “All in one”

Perfect picture

‘Picture perfect’ is the only way to describe this sight, but it is not one I saw. Lisa is down the beach most mornings walking the dogs before she heads to work, and also on weekends since she has started cold plunging. The frequency of her visits provides more chance of seeing the beach inContinue reading “Perfect picture”

Averting a mid-wall crisis

Ash has been absent from my posts for a while, and for good reason. He has been a bit of a national and global trotter, but is now back in the sleepy south west of Western Australia for a bit. Some months before he reached the shores of this island, he had reached out andContinue reading “Averting a mid-wall crisis”
