Dusty Spring time.





I cleaned my last toilet at Heritage Park (pink blossom) and Spook went up and did a few runs at Cardrona. It's funny to see the dust and the snow. He says it is melting fast.

Meg had a great flight down from Christchurch - clear views all the way, so saw the South Island in all it's glory. She had a great weekend, and whilst Finn can't wait to get home, Meg is going through some last minute sadness at the reality of saying goodbye to everyone. She also met Richie McCaw at Christchurch airport with his family and she and her pals got his autograph and congratulated him on The All Blacks win on Saturday (Captain).

I have a quiet week for my last week at work, so Spook and I are going up to Jackson Bay tomorrow. It's near Haast and will do for our Tasman Sea walk. Better get the sandfly cream out. On Wednesday we're going for coffee with the Chairman of the Board of Trustees to discuss fundraising. Ok, so it's Grant from the boys rugby sidelines, and it's time to talk to Spook about No Fuss and a fundraising event that could run each year here. That should give Spook something else to keep his mind off us as we head off into the Autumn. I don't want him getting bored.

Hopefully, Mary and I will get to our movie on Wednesday night.

grateful for:

Having my darling daughter back, even if she is a bit of a tyrant, wondering why no more packing has been done over the last 4 days.

A quiet week, so that I can get some more packing done!! (time to clean my own toilets and oven)
