Mike and you need to add to that, reply to all the e-mails. I am nearly at
yours to reply to.
Mary you are only as old as me - exactly the same age I believe, and as that
is just a couple of years past twenty two, we have a mighty long way to go.
Mike yes, I take as much time off now as possible. I have a small RV and a
small travel trailer/caravan and just *love* getting away. I have it set up
with everything possible, from solar panels to satellite TV and everything
else you could possibly want for in the way of comfort. Everything is easy
to get at, and there is no superfluous anything. Even have a small washing
machine on board which is powered from my solar panels. I go to all these
wonderful places of fresh air and freedom, with either good fishing or great
gold mining. In the region we live, we are so fortunate to great mountains,
great rivers and creeks, few people, and total freedom to park where you
like for as long as you like. I will post some pictures on my website when
I get back. If there is mobile phone coverage where I end up (should be) I
will post some pictures while I am away. Unbelievably stressful this
touring around and holidaying!!! Actually, from approximately 18th January
we will be starting the 2006 vintage, and it will be hell hectic for around
ten weeks - but I do love the vintage. While it is fairly heavy going
organising and making sure everything runs smoothly, there is something
special and enjoyable about it. The people that come working and visiting
during the vintage always make it a great time. The grape vines this year
are superb, and should be the best season we have ever had. Hope the
current great weather keeps up.
Sincere and best wishes to all, and may you have a most enjoyable and happy
time over the Christmas break.
PS: Mary this is my backyard
