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”
Colourful names
While I didn’t get my hurkle-durkle in on Saturday, it was still a relatively lazy day. This resulted in me getting itchy feet and wanting to get out and do something on Sunday. My preference was a snorkel, but with a forecast of fresh winds and being mostly cloudy it was not looking promising forContinue reading “Colourful names”
Word of the day
Another 4am wake up time meant there was no hurkle-durkling for me today, which was in fact yesterday’s word of the day. Nor Chris who I would pick up three quarters of an hour later. There are a few things I do to reduce the time required between rolling out of bed, quite literally sometimesContinue reading “Word of the day”
Shuffling the books
While Lisa has been bobbing in the water off our local beach all winter with the Peppy Plungers, I have refrained from doing so. So while in recent weeks she has come back from her Saturday bob saying it was warm, I really had no idea what to expect. Usually I don’t swim with theContinue reading “Shuffling the books”
Another long goodbye
This morning the unwelcome sound of rumbling thunder rose me from my slumber. Truth be told I’d been woken up several times prior, when rain fell noisily on the plastic veranda roof right next to our open bedroom window. As such I had already checked the radar at 1 and again at 3. Each timeContinue reading “Another long goodbye”
Back to back
Being keen spy a whale or two, Lisa was up for a wander on Saturday. The obvious place to head was Cape Naturaliste Lighthouse from where a number of walk trails head out. One of which takes you to the point of Cape Naturaliste and a whale watching platform. Here you can in 180 degreeContinue reading “Back to back”
It’s the little things that count
I was hoping to capture todays sunrise. And being aware that I might miss that special moment of the day due to being on the road, I took this snap while parked outside Howsie’s house. The morning hues were on display, but it didn’t really show the full glory of the sun peaking over theContinue reading “It’s the little things that count”
