Early Friday morning I woke just a few minutes before the alarm went off. It was dark, as I quietly crept round the kitchen making a cup of tea. After last week’s break in our Friday morning routine, due to the amazing hike in the Stirling Ranges, the ritual was restored. This week only HowsieContinue reading “Eight in the morning”

A most unexpected journey
Friday last week, as I did the finishing moves on the last lap on the final route of Rongy, Howsie and my before work climb at Welly Dam, Howsie said he had some exciting news. He and his best mate, Daz, were going to trek the Stirling Range Ridge walk. And whether it was theContinue reading “A most unexpected journey”
A biology lesson
I mention in my last post that I was hoping to get to a location I’ve not yet explored. This was planned with Esky, who today was instead heading out for a scuba in search of crays. So I put that idea aside and reached out to Geoff and Nana, and they were keen toContinue reading “A biology lesson”
Surfs up
The beach is back! During my previous trips to Moses Rocks I was in awe of just how much of the beach had been washed away by the winter storms. The last trip was in late August only ten weeks back (https://wordpress.com/post/sandbagged.blog/6710). But the sand is now returning and not just to the main beach,Continue reading “Surfs up”
The star attraction
The sun sets and rises really quickly in this part of the world, and if you look away you might miss that magical moment. In a similarly fast fashion the season seems to have switch over almost overnight. It seems that after weeks of looking at a grey and weed ridden ocean things have magicallyContinue reading “The star attraction”
A ‘tri’umphant day
Steve was in need of a circuit breaker from the non-stop lifestyle of the big smoke. And what better way to do that than to head down to the relatively sleepy south west, camp out and then head to the cliffs at almost day break. In addition he also managed to get a bit adventurousContinue reading “A ‘tri’umphant day”
Short and sharp
With the warmer weather, supposedly, on its way and first light getting earlier and earlier Rongy, Howsie and I have decided to once again start up a weekday before works climb. I don’t intend to record every session, as it will get a bit repetitive, but this one is warranted it is the first. OnContinue reading “Short and sharp”
21 again
It’s amazing just how many walks are dotted about the place, and I seem to be hearing about them as more people cotton on to my growing flower fetish. The most recent one being a spot out in the Wheatbelt reputedly littered with orchids, including several I have not as yet personally sighted. But thatContinue reading “21 again”
The detour
It’s been a while since Glen has been out on rock and this week he posted that he was keen to reinitiate his involvement in climbing. He also foolishly posted that last weekend he went out fishing, and left home at 4:30am. However, instead of capitalising on the chance for an early start and possibleContinue reading “The detour”
A perfect fit
Kym and I have been trying, and failing, to tee up a weekend to catch up for some time now. The wet winter and now spring we have had has not helped our cause. But this Friday I had to head to Albany for work, helping out with a workshop that ran from nine tillContinue reading “A perfect fit”
