Lazy Days

We're just ambling along lazily, not aiming to achieve too much just yet.
We've been to the Library and borrowed books and were pleased to find that our old friends are all still there.
This photo shows the arrival, around 5pm. I'm very happy to see the orange bougainvillea that I rescued last year.

The washing machine that we bought in Werribee is now located in one of the sheds and has already been put to good use. I figure that it will have paid for itself in about 7 weeks, (by not having to put coins in slots at the park laundry.) There's a clothes line right beside us so it's all very convenient. The rotary line was erected by Eric, the original tenant on this site. When Eric died, his sheds, line, garden, greenhouse and many bits and pieces were all left behind when a removalist came and towed away his caravan. The man in the site beside us is a great know-all and told us that Eric didn't pay his rent and was kicked out of the park. Steve said mildly that Eric had died, but the neighbour loudly contradicted this! We always meet several noisy, know-alls up here!
You might like to picture us as I write ------ The lounge is at the back end of the van. I have a recliner chair, a "granny chucker", with a massage insert and Steve has an office chair. We had planned to buy matching chairs but this can wait. I have purple throws over both chairs to make them match a little. We both have a window beside us; mine looks out over the airfield, the highway and the railway line and Steve has a view of the park. I have my laptop and Steve faces the side wall of the slide out pantry, which houses his terminal. His monitor is in a frame on the wall and he has a ledge above it for his bits and pieces. We're both connected to the Internet via the satellite. Steve built a ledge on the wall beside me, this morning. Later it will have a magazine rack built below it. Sounds comfortable, huh??




We've met many previous fellow travellers in the pools. We were particularly pleased to see Marco and Rosa, with whom we've shared many happy times. Everyone is late coming this year because of the cold weather.
Today's weather :- -1.4 to 16C but next week is forecast to climb to 21C. Now that's more like it!

Love to all family and friends,

Laurie
