greetings from the south coast

Hi all,
Well our weekend at Honeymoon Bay was divine. What a beautiful spot, in the middle of a military zone!! quite bizarre. We found this amazing fishing spot near point perpendicular- agood walk down a track in the coastal scrub, to a steep metal staircase that took us down to a cliff face where a dozen fisherman had camped in swags and were fishing for marlin!! One of the few places in the world where they fish for marlin off the mainland.A more determined bunch of fisherguys I had never seen. Quiet, beerless, it completely blew me away. And yes a marlin have been caught just the day before. This place is a hidden treasure. They bring all their gear down in prams and wheelbarrow and lock them to a tree at the end of the track. I'll take you there Mart if you are ever in the neighbourhood.
I was well rested for my six days of work to follow- the things you do for a few extra bucks for a air ticket.
I have booked flights for myself and Moo to fly to Hervey Bay in May-can't wait for that. now just have to plan the road trip south back home. We both have people and places we want to catch up with on the way south.
My beautiful friend Mya is coming up from Victoria with some of her family at Easter. I'm really looking forward to hanging out with them.
And then there's work, the chooks and the garden. Im pretty pissed off that the neighbout to the south has cut a small tree down, and dumped it in the creek area. Looks like its damaged a few shrubs i have planted on the way down. He's really going to get a piece of my mind next time I see him. He's already been dumping palm fronds on top of a lily pilly Ive planted. I only just finished telling him a week ago that that was our property, and all the bloody work I'd done in the creek. He's really in deep shit. I better stop dwelling on it otherwise Im going to get very angry.
Well now time to do a little travel research.
Hope all's well with everyone
Love Zak
