Another cool and crisp morning greeted Howsie, David, Josh, and myself. There was hardly a breeze and stunning morning hues, as we wandered along the beach towards Moses Rocks. It was time to for me claw back some hours, and a Friday morning out seemed like the perfect way to use those hours. Josh hasContinue reading “The comfort zone”

Putting my feet up
Today we welcomed a newcomer to our local climbing crew. David arrived from Ireland a few months back, and as yet had not had much success in meeting climbers. It is however small world, and he happened to be working with Ash’s partner. And while Ash has not been out climbing with us for whatContinue reading “Putting my feet up”
Rewinding the good times
You may be wondering why I may be writing about a climbing trip, in view that the last time I went climbing I took a fall, injuring myself. I’ll start by saying we have not climbed with Pontus for some time, due to him being stuck in Perth for work. Some weeks back he mentionedContinue reading “Rewinding the good times”
Hobbling along
Closing my laptop on Thursday and not being motivated to drive anywhere, I looked at my orchid guide to see what other species flower early. There are a couple of shell orchids that are known to flower about this time, and better still are found in dense heath, Peppermint, and Tuart woodlands. The A classContinue reading “Hobbling along”
Brain power
With a near full (office) work day under my belt, I was able to slip out the house at 11am. The drive to Howsie’s was way busier compared to the earlier times we normally head out. And it was also that way when we drove out of Bunbury and up the hill towards Collie. However,Continue reading “Brain power”
Seeing things
Needing to rectify the error of my ways, after I dunked my phone in the ocean or should I say the ocean dunked my phone and me, I scored a five series upgrade. Being lucky to avoid the expense of buying a new one, as Elseya still had her old phone. It was somewhat ofContinue reading “Seeing things”
Davy Jones’ locker
The term ‘lost at sea’ is a bit of a misunderstood saying. It was linked to Davy Jones’ locker in 1791, when an article in the newspaper called the Chester Chronicle said ‘to be within Davy Jones’s locker was to be lost at sea’. It was originally used to refer to the final resting placeContinue reading “Davy Jones’ locker”
Sometimes adequate is good enough
Continuing my theory that fresh air is currently even better for me than usual, and because it is a public holiday I headed and out again. Or was it more because regardless of how I feel, and as long as I am able too, I will always prefer being outdoors rather than indoors. Truth beContinue reading “Sometimes adequate is good enough”
Putting things into perspective
It’s an extra-long weekend for me, having taken Friday off and Monday being a public holiday. Not the best timing for Lisa to share her lurgy with Elseya and me. While I can feel that I am not bug free, I have not been struck down in the same way Lisa was all of lastContinue reading “Putting things into perspective”
Having a laugh
I hadn’t picked up on the silence last Sunday, as I battled hard on the steep unforgiving walls at Welly Dam. Not from the lack of people, but the lack of birds. I thought it may have been as a result of the quicker pace I take when top rope soloing, meaning I’m on rockContinue reading “Having a laugh”
