With only a few months left this year Howsie was in need of a boost to keep his 2020 challenge on track, so we headed down to Wilyabrup to allow him to tick off a couple more 20s from his list. And as predicted last week the starts are getting earlier, as he suggested meetingContinue reading “Set your alarm clocks”

Slow and steady
With one day left before Lisa and I head back to work, after a great relaxing two weeks off, Craig and I headed out for a climb. I groaned a bit when he suggested a 5:30 pickup time at his house, and dreading the drive out in the dark I was a little surprised thatContinue reading “Slow and steady”
Fire and water
Over this last couple of weeks I have inundated you with posts, however both Lisa and I will be back at work next week. That means there will be less time for adventures and of course less posts coming through. Being the last weekend of our holidays we headed back to Wellington National Park, withContinue reading “Fire and water”
Heading to shore
Today Lisa was feeling much better but we didn’t head up to the forests, instead the poodles got a well-deserved beach walk. During term time they get walked practically every day, but this holiday their walks have been less frequent. So they were hankering to get down for a run. Walking down towards the beachContinue reading “Heading to shore”
Stuffed jalapenos
The theory was for Lisa and I to head up to Wellington National Park for a wander, overnight camp and then hit a second walk tomorrow. But plans change. It was not that we were put off by the fact that it had bucketed down the night before, the forecast from this morning onwards lookedContinue reading “Stuffed jalapenos”
There she blows
Walking back into Wilyabrup today it looked like we might have lucked out. We were heading to Driftwood Bay as Rongy had never climbed there. Despite having been out here top rope soloing only last weekend I was of course happy to return. The place has a charm to it, one that resonates with meContinue reading “There she blows”
Turf-n-surf
All fired up after a couple of great walks and good number of orchids under my belt, I decided to test what the home turf had on offer. So jumping over the back wall of our garden I trudged through the small reserve to see what I could find. There were lots of Pink FairyContinue reading “Turf-n-surf”
Counting steps
Having lived in this area for close to fifteen years you would have thought we would have hunted out the local spots to go for a wander. However, there are still a few places left for us to explore, one being Wellington National Park. I have climbed here, way too many times, in fact itContinue reading “Counting steps”
Flower power
While I realise this isn’t about climbing or snorkelling I didn’t feel there was any harm in diversifying the topics of my blog. So after coming across my first orchid of the season down at Wilyabrup yesterday I thought Lisa and I should do something we haven’t done for a while and that was goContinue reading “Flower power”
Happy holidays
Finally the school holidays have arrived! And seeing my trip back to the UK had to be cancelled I am staying home for the two weeks, as we are being told at work that we have to keep using our leave. While many are complaining about this I don’t mind a couple of weeks atContinue reading “Happy holidays”
