EARLY FEBRUARY FUN - 11 FEBRUARY 2020


11 February 2020

Mountain bike ride at Brisbane Water NP. Played in the old quarry and followed the Tommos Loop Track.











Heaps of water and some parts were heavily eroded – fun obstacles to go over and through.


10 February 2020

Wandered around Somersby Falls with Kara. A couple of days after the heavy rain and still lots of water.












9 February 2020

Birdy visitors.







4 February 2020

A mountain bike ride at Kincumba Mountain on the tracks. Did some berms well that I normally flounder upon. Yahoo!




Swim at The Haven after the ride. Visibility poor.


2 February 2020

Swim and sit at Pearl Beach with Jacinta. Warm water. Good coffee.

Visited at home by rainbow lorikeets and three sulfur-crested cockatoos.


1 February 2020

Walk around the rocks at the Haven. Tide was low.



Followed by swim though water visibility was poor due to plankton.

LATE JANUARY FUN - 31 JANUARY 2020



31 January 2020

Swim at The Haven.


30 January 2020


Snorkel at Toowoon Bay. Heaps of fish.







A new bird in our yard.




Spiders are proliferating.




29 January 2020

Nice day but surf very flat.




A morning ride at Kincumba Mountain along a few of the tracks. No one there, quiet, damp tracks, humid, misty and heaps of mosquitoes.






Surfed at The Bend, Terrigal with Ken. Some okay waves but the tide filled the waves quickly and it was 'all over red rover'.

A visit from Friend Chris for a few days.





28 January 2020

Visited the physio this morning. A few adjustments to the wrist brace and a discussion on possibility of surfing. We removed the metal bracing of the wrist strap.

Left the physio and drove straight down to The Bend on Terrigal Beach. Heaps of waves – some fast lefts and short but fun rights. The wrist hurt a bit but not enough to spoil the fun. After ¾ hour, I was tired but feeling so good.


26 January 2020

Cycled along the path at Umina/Ettalong Beaches.







It was very warm and humid. Such pretty views. Finished with a swim at Umina Beach after the ride.


25 January 2020

Cycled along the path at Tuggerah Lake, Long Jetty. Rode for a while on some short tracks where someone had made a few bike challenges… fun.






Wrist felt good but a bit awkward with the flat metal  that runs along the strapping. Hard to get a good grip on the handlebars.






CENTRAL COAST - 4 TO 11 MARCH 2023

 4 MARCH I woke and unloaded and tidied the van. I drove Jacinta to the Hens party for Chloe at Glenworth Valley. Back home and I tidi...
