It is absolutely freezing!  I am wrapped in blankets on the couch waiting for it to get warmer... and it probably doesn’t help that I have frozen fruit in my breakfast muesli which is cooling me from the inside out. 



David and I have only done a couple of climbs recently as my roster has been very busy and I have been very very tired.  We did have a lovely climb up Beerwah in the semi wet and got some nice photos.



 

It was good fun although I do prefer climbing when it is dry.

We also saw a beautiful Beerwah sunset



This photo is looking East back towards Coonowrin (left) and Tibrogargan just right of the shadow of Beerwah.




We also went flying with Lily, in the 172RG and she wasn’t terrified all of the time ... she didn’t like full power but seemed to like Dave’s practice forced landing!  


Here’s a nice shadow of the aeroplane, coming in to land

We also got Dave a new car!  Very exciting, and we pick it up in a week or two after finance is approved 


Doesn’t he look smart?  He had just completed a job interview to be an engineering instructor, which went really well and we are really hoping he gets.  It would be initially a casual position but potentially with a full time position available in the future.  Either way, a government job that would be much more reliable than his current company!  It’s not the BEST time to be buying a new car, with so much uncertainty, but he needs a vehicle to be able to get to work, and his old Camry is so dodgy now, I’m worried for him every time he drives it.  Not only does it have 350,000km on it, but it also steers left dramatically, the steering vibrates through the steering wheel, and two out of four wheels wobble alarmingly as you drive... so we didn’t have much of an option other than to replace it!

Anyway that’s about it for now - I’ll try to make the next post sooner!
