Just a short note before I begin some real work!!!
Dad rang Aaron this morning on his mobile. He is still in hospital after his motor bike fall. As most of you know, he managed to break his clavicle (collar bone); sternum; and 3/4 ribs, one of which pierced his lung. He is still hooked up to tubes as they try to drain fluid and blood from his lung but feels that he is on the mend. He can't remember a thing about what happened. Tash had yesterday off school but is back on duty today.
We had a good trip to Airlie via Biloela, Mt Morgan, Rockhampton, Yeppoon Rockhampton, Mackay, and Proserpine. It was so lovely to catch up with so many of you. Loved a walk with Charlie and Maveric; a swim with Josh, Nyrie and Jacob; breakfast with Chris and Jarred; ---- and a pat of Boris and Penny!! Dean & Jenny Smith's wedding was lovely; We enjoyed our stay with Tom and Marie Callaghan. Called on an old school friend from my days at the Range College (used to go out to Jealous's place at Byfield on our weekend's out) - Margaret nowlives in Yeppoon. Got to have an outside peek at Bugs and Sheree's new home. Met up with Valerie & Eddie Shaw at Jo & Pete's home in the rainforest. We had five days from when we left till when we returned, and travelled close on 2400 kilometres so there was not a lot of time to spare.
Thanks for all the prayers for safe trip - it was very good. Mind you I slept for a good part of the driving. We had an overnight stay with Mary on her birthday and got to have tea with her new house mates, Kathy and her son Robbie. Robbie cooked tea for us - Chicken Risotto - Dad said that it tasted heaps better than that on the entrea menu at Rydges Capricorn!!

We are trying to harvest at the moment - crop is dry, but the header driver is missing.
Les and Deb are bringing a roast out for tea tonight - it will be great to catch up with them and Kurtis and Blair.
Boris survived his knock with the car - vet said that there were no broken bones! Sheree is doing well also after the shock!! Boris is as cute as ever.
