Russell Island Sunrise

Now I am home again to my house on the hill overlooking the water and a sunrise welcomed me back.

Reflections and Yachts at Tin Can Bay Marina

So many times I walked along the Marina looking at the boats and the yachts and the reflections in the water. How I wished I knew somebody with a yacht who would let me sit on the yacht and watch the colors of the day change. The fishing boats were amazing too. I walked theContinue reading “Reflections and Yachts at Tin Can Bay Marina”

Gympie Six Mile Rest Area…Queensland

Every time I drive north. I almost always overnight-stay at the Gympie Six Mile Rest Area. I like the setting, the toilets and the distance from Brisbane…and if you can handle the noise from the trucks at night, it is a pleasant stay. The Caltex station before here provides a meal. I usually get petrolContinue reading “Gympie Six Mile Rest Area…Queensland”
