Full Circle!

Well… a couple of weeks ago, we started out at Fossil Bluff with family in the rain, gloom and wind – and we finished back down at Fossil Bluff today, wearing t-shirts and soaking up the sun!!

First we took Michelle & Co down to Doctors Rocks to go gold panning!

It was fun to teach the kids and we even found a few flakes, so the day started off pretty well.

Anticipation!

After lunch, Tony & Michelle set about packing the car – I think we created a Rock-Monster in Tony as he seemed to have half of Tasmania’s rocks stashed in their car. (They have ordered a rock tumbler, so will be indulging in a new hobby!!) 😀

Of course, last stop is to see Ruby & Margie, and present Ruby with the wonderful guest book that they made for her party

I still need to take a photo of the book properly, but it was a combined effort to hand make the book, and it is filled with many names and messages for Ruby.

Needless to say, she was thrilled!

Sadly, time was ticking away, and we had to bid my family farewell (ok, a few little tears) but it was a wonderful couple of weeks being able to show them as much of our bit of lives as we could and spending time together.

I must say it seems rather quiet at Norwich House tonight!!!

Cheers!
