Driving home from work Lisa has started to do what I often do, which is a quick trip up and over the dune to check the condition of the water. I hadn’t been in today, despite working from home, but the report from Lisa was the water was glassy. Tempting me to go down forContinue reading “Eating habits”

My kind of candy store
Well I just keep getting surprises each time I put my head underwater. And this week, being lucky enough to have to work from home, my chances of doing just that increased. Not every day has been ideal for a dip but a few certainly have, and I’ve made the most of it. There areContinue reading “My kind of candy store”
Where to next?
On Friday night, and continuing through Saturday, a cyclone was pushing its way down the west coast. The forecast was for anywhere of up to 30mm of rain. Some would say it would be a dumb time to head out for a camp, but Lisa had caught the camping bug after our night away lastContinue reading “Where to next?”
Taking on the jellies
The tell-tale signs are there to indicate the season for snorkelling off my local beach is drawing to a close. The sun is much lower in the sky, the water while on occasion is flat has more of a milky as oppose to aqua blue look, the beach is showing signs of the sand startingContinue reading “Taking on the jellies”
Giving into technology
Our weekend hikes, mostly hunting orchids, seems such a long and distant memory and it is probably fair to say we haven’t done a huge amount together since then. As such this was the weekend that Lisa and I decided it was time that we went away for a night to do something together. InContinue reading “Giving into technology”
Cloud watching
Another early 4am start, which is just under two hours before first light. But you would never believe it looking at this image taken a short fifteen minutes into the journey. For these starts, I’ll endeavour to get an early night so I’m not too tired in the morning. Last night however my sleep wasContinue reading “Cloud watching”
Kicking goals
A long weekend heralds the arrival of crowds from Perth. We can expect busy roads on Friday, as we head home from work, and the beach starts to fill out more than usual. On such weekends there is little point in heading anywhere in the local area for a feed or to a coastal spotContinue reading “Kicking goals”
Stretching the rope
Over the festive period, which seems so long ago now, I would normally pop down to the south coast to get out for a climb with Kym. However, just before the school holidays last year, he took a fall of his skateboard and badly sliced his wrist on a broken bottle. Needless to say thatContinue reading “Stretching the rope”
My precious
I am a great fan of The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings, so much so I have read the books and watched the films multiple times. And all I could think of, as I watched my wedding ring disappear between the boulder, was the sound of metal bouncing off rock when Gollum dropped theContinue reading “My precious”
Close encounters of the smallest kind
The beach is a short three minute walk from where we live, and jumping in the water after work is always so refreshing. It can also help to wash away whatever thoughts of work may remain lurking in the back of my mind. Despite knowing this, I rarely make use of the extravagant luxury ofContinue reading “Close encounters of the smallest kind”
