Starting Fresh in 2021

January 7, 2021

A fresh start, a clean slate … a brighter tomorrow is never too late for anyone. I hope your year’s started well. My first days of 2021 were spent at a tiny place called Bealiba, in the goldfields region of Victoria. Years ago miners flocked to this area to find their fortune. Today fossickers still … More Starting Fresh in 2021

Bringing colour into December

December 6, 2020

As I write this from my van it’s raining outside. We’re camped on the edge of a lagoon near Gunbower Island in Victoria and the sky is grey. There’s no sunshine and who knows what the next 24 hours will bring. That’s the unpredictability of nature and, indeed, of life. The heat disappeared an hour … More Bringing colour into December

Superstitions and Signs

November 12, 2020

Are you superstitious? Tomorrow is Friday the 13th, a day many believe is unlucky. But truly, how can any Friday be considered unlucky? I’ve always thought of it as the best day of the week, especially when I was working my 9-5 job. Still, I do believe in chance, I have a bit of a … More Superstitions and Signs

So, what IS Normal anyway?

November 1, 2020

What does ‘normal’ look like to you? For most of us, this year has turned the word on its heels. Is there even such a thing anymore and can it be redefined? … More So, what IS Normal anyway?

Slow down and take a cue from nature. Go with the flow and trust that everything will work out. Nature’s gifts of pastel hues, gentle birdsong and ripples on the water ... sometimes one minute of meditation is all we need. Welcome to Autumn in Australia. 🧡💦 Last Sunday, early morning on Lake Burrumbeet.
We’re passed this lake dozens of times on the way to the Grampians and never realised how big it was or how much free camping there is along its foreshore. So it was great to finally check it out. Swipe to see the many magical moods of Lake Burrumbeet from sunrise to nightfall.
Our weekend started off with a rescue! Here’s hubby snatching them out of some deep sand, after their RV got stuck near the lake where we camped. Gary and Glenda from Korrumburra became our newest best friends! Helping out fellow travellers ... it’s all part of the adventure. 😎
Let ripples of serenity flow through your day. 💙
After a day relaxing in the river, (swipe to see) nothing beats a great camp roast dinner with the whole family, a night by the fire and a dreamy sky full of stars. Simple pleasures. 🌟
“Life is a highway, I’m gonna ride it, all night long ...” 🎵
