Mount Ninderry and the last few days....

This is a motor home I saw parked in Maryborough. Made me smile. made me think of the trip I will do one day when I travel around this awesome country. I feel it getting closer and closer.



We had to do a quote for our business last weekend at Yandina so I thought I would take a look and see what bush walks were around the place to make a day of it since we had to drive a fair way from home to do this quote - we won the job by the way - and I found Mount Ninderry. What a great walk it was. I did not get any pictures from the top as my camera battery went flat but it was a great walk with awesome views.

Starts of going up and down gentle slopes and then.....

straight up for a longggggggg way. Every time Mick and I thought we could see a bend that we thought might flatten out it just kept going up and up. This would have been a spectacular sight when it was flooding with rain. The whole pathway is covered in rock - some quite large - it would have been noisy and very dangerous.

And I want to show you the lovely flowers my husband Mick got for me for valentines day. He thought he would get me a plant with flowers and now I have to try not to murder my new African Violet.

Here is the card he wrote to me. Awwww shucks.........

Cheers,
Wendy

Stephen King - 11.22.63


I borrowed this book from the library - Stephen Kings new book - 11.22.63

I don't like horror but when I read the run down of what this book was about on the new book library list I thought I'd give it a try as one of my favorite books of all time is 'The Tallisman" by Peter Straub and Stephen King. If you have not read that book then do yourself a favour and read it.

I didn't read any reviews of this new book before I read it. I like to make up my own mind and not be influenced by other peoples opinions. I am glad I didn't because it has mixed reviews. Personally I could not put the dam thing down and it was so bloody clever. I found it enthralling and interesting and informative and thought provoking and just a dam good read.

Let me know if you have read it and what you think. I loved it and if I had a long plane flight to sit through I reakon it would be the perfect book to keep me spellbound and occupied for hours on end.

Cheers, Wendy
