...............the mice are at play

 

 

 

Well, last Saturday, we took Abbi, Emilee and Maddy

up to Darwin to catch the plane to Cairns

so they could go to youth camp in Malanda.

 

That means that Chloe and I are home alone!

(Well, in the daytime at least, while Dave's at work)

 

So, we've been trying to do special things together.

We've been op shopping and out for coffee

and yesterday we got to go with Dave to Timber Creek!

 

Chloe really enjoyed getting to ride in the sleeper

and sitting perched on the fridge in between our seats.

 

On this particular trip, we had to go out to the Bradshaw

training ground. This is where they send the army and

air force for training etc.

 

Crossing the bridge to get into the grounds

 

 Crossing the Victoria River

 

Dave breaks in (well, not really, he was given an entry code)

 

Looking back up the Victoria River

 

I just loved this sign. It's a classic!

What exactly do they mean by "anything"??

 

Victoria River

 

There is some amazing scenery out there.

You pass through these beautiful ranges where

the cliff faces are red and tower above you.

 

 

 Sorry, same truck, we followed him for a while:)



 

All the photos were taken out the windscreen

or windows while driving, but you get the idea 

 

Well, that's about it for now. Dave is off tonight on

his long run and this time he has to head out

to Western Desert so won't be home til Friday late.

 

So, Chloe and I still have a lot to do off Chloe's

"to do with mum" list, so I guess we'll keep

busy while he's away.

 

And I leave you with this great thought!
