TIKI TOUR PHOTOS

 Right... here's the photos I took a couple of days ago, when Ron took me on a 'Tiki Tour' around the hills and so on.

ABOVE:    I look like a ***good year blimp*** in that top! But it's so pretty. 

ABOVE:  Stunning views!  Horrifically STEEP roads to get there!  And that viewing deck?  It kinda moved when people walked on it... I was shitting myself.

Starting to give a head's up.

I will be in Sydney on the 26th of October.  I will be in a motel out by the airport for FOUR DAYS.

If anyone nearby would like to visit or see me... my Aussy phone number is : 044 8071875

I will have three full days to kill.

It's OK if no one can make it to see me/visit me... I'll just go SHOPPING! 😋😅😂

ABOVE:  I was concerned about Ron after Mum's death.  He said he just didn't see the point in doing anything on the property again.

He said he only did it for Mum, because she loved the gardens so much.

But in the past couple of days he's mowed the lawns and done some grass cutting on the steeper banks too.

So I think he's coming right... it just takes time.

AND doing the grounds keeps him busy, and he gets good and tired and can sleep at night.

I've no idea what we are doing today.  It's supposed to be raining ... I've not looked outside yet so no idea if it is or not.

ONWARD...

10.44 am:  I've just been into town and posted two parcels home.  Easier than lugging the stuff around in me suitcases.

It was just fabric Mum had given me, plus the fabric I brought over with me to work on.

HA HA!  I've not felt like sewing IN THE LEAST the entire time I've been here.

It never even entered my head.  Same with the jigsaws I brought over with me.  Have not done them.

While out, I bought two winter jackets (wool) for $30 each!  Down from $150.  Crazy to think they can sell them for that.  Imagine what their mark up must be!

At some point today I am going to make a start on the dusting around here.  It desperately needs doing.  

How fitting... the day Mum died it poured with rain.  It's one week today and ... it's pouring with rain again.

And it's cold!  I've got a jacket on.  And 3/4 tights.  I didn't think to bring any long tights... did not for one second think I'd get cold!

ABOVE:  Can't see the town at all!  

1.54 pm:  and all the dusting and polishing is done in the family/dining room.  Big job DONE.

***  man has it rained ***

*** like all day! ***

I'm signing off now... time to try and chill out for a little while.  My stress levels are HIGH as f*#k.
