Hello to all of our friends and relations receiving this edition of the yearly epistle. We hope that it finds you happy, wherever you are and whatever you are up to. This is our attempt to update you all on what has been going on in our lives over the last year so here goes:Continue reading “TREVOR AND ERICA’S CHRISTMAS LETTER 2023”
Manawarra Orienteering 12/6/23
We lay warm and snug in our beds and listened to the sounds of the others heading out to help set up the event for the day. We were glad to have a bit longer to lie there in the warm. There was lots of movement across the campsites because it was the last dayContinue reading “Manawarra Orienteering 12/6/23”
SA Long Champs Wilpena Creek 11/6/23
We couldn’t avoid the day finally arriving, so we met it face on and early in the hopes that we could make the best of what we had to come. With toilet tents and signs loaded in the van (and friends bringing the emptied Porta Potties a little later on) we headed on out toContinue reading “SA Long Champs Wilpena Creek 11/6/23”
Adelaide to Appilla 8/6/23
It’s been a crazy week of turnaround since we got back from the last trip away to Witchelina. We’ve tried to fit in catching up on washing, family visiting, our usual walking, and preparation for the big Orienteering champs event of Sunday. I’ve also tried to have the food sorted so it’s not taking tooContinue reading “Adelaide to Appilla 8/6/23”
Witchelina walking – Day 1 of getting there
We left home on 20/5/23 at about 1130, heading down Greenhill rd to South rd and heading on to the northern expressway. We stopped in Two Wells to fill with fuel plus put a bit of back-up fuel into a Jerry can (100 litres in total). We initially thought we might stop at the bakeryContinue reading “Witchelina walking – Day 1 of getting there”
Cowell to The Pool 10/2/23
It was good to have a shower in the morning. We were on the road by just after 8 but the others were heading for the roadhouse for breakfast. We drove on to Arno Bay where we enjoyed another jetty walk and were again impressed by a foreshore with a huge shelter shed, great playgroundContinue reading “Cowell to The Pool 10/2/23”
Fishing , Wading and Paddling. 11/2/23
We woke to the noises of our fellow campers, already up and about and noisy. Trev was feeling ready to go, but I was stubbornly trying to cling to my sleep. Eventually I conceded defeat and got up. 5 out of 6 headed for the rocky point (the usual fishing spot) but had to wadeContinue reading “Fishing , Wading and Paddling. 11/2/23”
Day 2- Pirie to Cowell
We lay in bed in our camper listening to the sounds of a waking world: the tap tap tap of spoons on cereal bowls, the street sweeper out on the street and the local pigeons singing their repetitive song. Once we were clear to go inside and not interrupt the morning routine we headed inContinue reading “Day 2- Pirie to Cowell”
Baldrys Crossing walk and wine tasting 1/8/22
We are already becoming aware that we only have a few more days left to look around the Peninsula, so we wanted to make use of a rain-free day today. Even though the weather-app was telling us that it would feel like 4 degrees we went in search of a different walk and a tasteContinue reading “Baldrys Crossing walk and wine tasting 1/8/22”
