Settling in

Well, the move is done. We still have a garage full of "stuff" we are yet to sort through but we are in! We had a good move if its possible thanks to help from my client Brisk Transport who's wonderful boys helped us move and Box N Go who provided amazing moving containers so we didn't have to pack and move everything on the last day!

We are settling into our new house nicely and discovering how lucky we are to have gotten this house. Living on the Esplanade although we aren't "on the waterfront" as such we are just 200m or so from the waterfront section with beautiful grassy areas and fishing spots. We all walk or ride our bikes daily along this section which leads to a brand new bike path which connects us to Bribie Island and also Turners Camp beach/park.

Ali and Angus (two of our best friends) came over last week and we all rode down to Turners Camp and the boys had a great time, concluding at Turners where we stopped walked along the beach and saw oyster shells under the tree there. On further investigation and reading of the monument we discovered that there are oyster leases just off the beach! Talk about a good fishing spot!!

Just down the creek from us Darren saw a fish skeleton at a local groyne.
(click to see) The red thing in the pic is a keyring for scale.

For the first time in at least 12 months I actually feel inspired to paint, mosaic or create! Yay lets hope it lasts!! :)

more soon...
