Glorious rain for the last two days and more promised this week. Great news.
Saturday Rene and I went to look at the latest work being done on our apartment complex. The landscaping is progressing well, the pool is yet to be filled, the tennis court looks ready to go and palms and assorted trees and shrubs are being planted all over the place. We get in to inspect our place on October 14. Can't wait.
Bought a new shirt and shoes on Sunday ready for my nephew's wedding this Friday afternoon. Should be a very pleasant affair at the Victoria Park Golf Club.
Today assisted the annual testing of the Year 3/5/7's at one school, again tomorrow. My ESL students try so hard, but even with explanations of text (no elaboration, just help with the reading) they usually find it difficult to carry out step 2 and 3 after just understanding what to do in step 1. Anyway, it proves nothing but keeps the politicians happy.
House designs and builders are proving to be a little challenge. Nothing solid to report just yet, but I guess it's early days.
Rene has continued framing his many Aboriginal art works. I have to say they look stunning framed and free standing. He's doing an excellent job.
Planning for next week's journey to The Centre is finished. I'll publish a map of the route at the weekend. Suffice to say it is around 1800km of often desert terrain and will be fascinating. We have booked a large 4WD for the journey. Looking forward to it enormously.
I'll finish off for now with this picture tha
