Cromwell

Home! It's been wonderful being with our family and immersing ourselves in the all the comings and goings. The teenagers have all grown up.....I am feeling short! Josh is completing his final exams, planning work before uni and being an all round fabulous kid. Sam is now well settled into his Joinery apprenticeship, has bought his first car and nabbing any fully licensed driver to take him for a spin. He's so proud of the car...... cleans it every time it returns from an outing no matter the distance! Olivia is 14 and wonderful. Tall, caring and experiencing all that tween years bring. A gorgeous girl! Tully is an absolute crackup! Funny, larger than life and planning to join the Navy in a couple of years. He, like Harper, loves his hockey and rowing. It'll be good to have Harper home from boarding school in a couple of weeks
We've been busy. David has resumed custodian duties at the NZMCA parks in Cromwell. It's hard to believe the absolute numpties out there that play the system! I'm a custodian too and had to assist David with one numpty..... got my 'teacher' out to resolve issues! David has also been completing some maintenance tasks at the parks. In the mix has been a return to Bridge for me but on a casual basis, mastering the 45th Parallel track and the Bannockburn Sluicings loop track. We're loving the walking despite the creaking joints!
David has been tasked with repairs and maintenance on Kate and B's caravan. Not a small job but hopefully it'll be road worthy for the holiday period.
At the end of next week we head to Southland for a couple of weeks for planned social events and catching up with family.
We're REALLY looking forward to hitting the road again. We've missed it!Read more
