We are embracing retirement, and making the most of it.

We knew we were never going to sit still for long, so whilst we are happy and healthy we will be out and about seeing the world………… full time.

We are out of the fast lane and taking the slow road ahead

Finley

We arrived in Finley by 10amWednesday. Our house finally settled, and we had a great afternoon catch up with all the family, babysat, watched Moana, then off to bed.
Today our furniture arrived at 7am, zero degrees and frost and fog everywhere. I asked the driver to take me back to the Sunshine Coast with him.  The truck was empty by 11.30 am, and now time has come to unpack. Grrrr!
The kids spend almost every minute they can across the road at our place, helping, exploring and playing my piano.  It is cool to have such a lively home. Tonight we are freezing, no heater, can't get the under floor heating to work, wearing 3 layers of clothes to bed, brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

  3. Zero degrees!! I too would have contemplated stowing away in the removal van & return to Sunshine Coast. Just think of the snow trips you'll be taking - even if it's just to may snowmen & throw snowballs.

  4. Yes, i am trying to plan a trip to the snow for early August. It wouldnt be so bad here if it actually snowed, make suffering the cold worth while
