With the cold weather the fruit trees in the front yard are loaded with fruit.  There are hundreds and hundreds of mandarins, maybe a hundred blood orange, 50 or so lemonade and there were 3 tangelos but ate those.  This year the pink grapefruit had not borne fruit.

Hen and Chicken Bay.  I've done this walk before, in fact it was the first walk I lead for our group and John loved it.  We got off the ferry at Abbotsford and walk to Cabarita Wharf which is about 9 k but really easy and flat.  Great day and the views matched the day.


Trialling the playdough and the batch came out well making four colours plus here is a sample of John's bit of fun.

 We walked from Meadowbank to Parramatta one day as a pre walk for the group, but just over half way there was a lot of street walking with many factories, so we decided to go another day and crossed the river at the Silverwater Bridge and went down the other side to Olympic Park Wharf.  I enjoyed both days.

The extension job finished so now John can do a few jobs about the house.  Over time the bricks under the
clothes line sank and as it was good weather he  fixed the path.

John has become an Ed Hardy fan and here he is in his new acquisition of a hoodie.  He has worn it down the street and has had a few comments. 



Eight of us walked from Waterfall to Heathcote via fire tracks and various walking paths down to the pool and then the goat track back up.  It was a hard 10 k and was so pleased to see the top.  The leeches only attacked one person and luckily it wasn't me.
