It is just two days till Christmas as I write this, and we cannot believe how fast the time is going. The wet season is upon us and we have had plenty of rain and sunshine, but very few storms so far. We have our solar farm up and running, built a machinery shed and stables, run the power and water from the gate up to the house/ hangar site - all 350 metres of it - and plumbed in a pump and rainwater tank. The horses are loving it. The stables , not the power.... The dam is full and we released a small Eastern Long Neck turtle into it yesterday after I found it wandering across the road. I have rebuilt an old ute and that is doing great service around the property, the Spacewalker is flying great after I revised the undercarriage geometry which required repositioning the axles, and all the trees are growing like crazy. Long time mate, Mike Loughnan, called in for few days aftr picking up his re-engined, supercharged Honda NSX, and I have picked up a part-time gig writing for Gizmag. Chris is still full time at the Uni running the Vet Dept reception area, but always finds time to see the horses every morning and night.
