greetings from the south coast

Hi all,
Yep Moo is here. We attempted the Kiama to Gerringong coast walk last Friday to celebrate my 50th birthday. It was a great day, even if we only got half way, because we then found out the track at Gerringong lagoon was closed. No wonder, the seas were huge so it probably just got washed away.
We walked, talked, swum, laughed, ate, even did a few op shops with success.
on sunday Hasi and woke to chaos on the street. the creek had broken its banks and mud was everywhere. it took us and the neighbours the whole day to clear up. There was so much debris that came down the creek, that it blocked under the street. The water back flowed up and over the street, flooding sheds on the oppositeside of the street, pulling down fences and flooding one house and a flat. amazing.


Under the house

Above is what was collected from the creek, and below is the blockage.just left of the centre, is a tractor tyre, that Stew, our neighbour asked the council to remove several months ago. That is the problem with the creek. You can only be responsible for your own section, and the council doesnt take any responsibility.


I have finished reading Tales from the Tinny, and loved it. One of my favourite chapters was  the dry, page 135 to 141.
And Im wondering Mart if you wear one of those kill lanyards, I think they are called. Could save your life. anyway have a read and a laugh yourselves. 
That's it for now, Love Zak

Hi All,
Katie and I ventured to the airport to collect Moo.
Here is photographic story as we greeted her.
What a delight it is to have her here to complete all family visits over the holiday period. Cunjurong is next on the agenda.

Really I dont want to say too much, just want to show you some amazing photos. Hasi went into the purple shed to get the feed for the chooks one day last week. He thought the door seemed a little different to open, and looked up to find...



And of course, had to put in this shot of Drako and his new sweetie.
