Cradle Mountain

 Adam, Kate Brett, Cathy and their friends Paul an Jen had been planning a trip to Cradle Mountain for some time.  The weather at the mountain is notoriously fickle so they were very lucky to strike benign conditions for their visit.

Lake House Receives Guests

 Mark has been working on the interior of the Lake House doing plaster work and painting.

It has now accommodated guests for a weekend so the systems are up and working.

The walls now have their final colours in the Family Room.

Season Ends

 We watched Lachlan in his final game for the current season.  Jack was ill so he missed his final game as Coach. The boys worked hard but unfortunately they were outgunned on this occasion.  So we now look forward to a new team and a new season.

Cousin Catchup

Twice a year, Claire meets up with her cousins for lunch.  She is lucky only having to travel into Southern Cross station but Glenda travels 4 hours by bus each way from Cohuna, and Valerie travels about 90 min by train from Trafalgar. 

Claire's Birthday Celebration

 Lisa and Mark invited the family over for a celebration of Claire's 78th birthday.  Despite predictions the rain held off for a wonderful relaxed evening.  Well, it was relaxed for the attendees but Lisa, Mark and the boys worked hard all night!

The cake was a great opportunity for a family photo but as Cathy was the photographer, she was (photographically) MIA.

The Cross Fit Crew

 With Adam, then Brett then Lisa and Jack and Cooper all attending the Cross Fit Gym, they may soon be arranging a takeover.

A New Era For Patrick

 Patrick has been assigned to the Austin Hospital as the base for his medical training. He has started and will spend progressively more time at the hospital as training proceeds.

Cooper Prepares

 It is important to be appropriately dressed for the School Swimming Sports.  Cooper had it all sorted.
