Rest Day B4 Charters Towers (Sun 21.July.2024CE)



Lovely breaky of coffee, tea, toast etc with Clem Archer. 



His wife, Tracene, was flat out till 4 or 5am doing a special birthday quilt for celebrating a grandson’s special day this arvo. How lucky this boy.


How delightful to get some washing done, hung out, collected in, & share a morning with Clem looking at his farm (the site of family get-togethers of over 70 people for a couple of days a year), 



fences, yards, windmills, and to meet Adrian who was the windmill climber (with safety gear of harness, carabiners etc), a bite for lunch, a “Poppy Resta”, and then in to town to drive the ute back while they catch up with family in town. 


I might suss out CT, buy some muesli bars & fruit, and see if it will work to visit some acquaintances for a quick cuppa, or even get some takeaway to share. Recall that stance of learning, and joining in, instead of my default teacher stance (a problem with being a high school teacher).


Then back to the farm for an early-ish night. Thanks for the use of your ute Clem & Tracene. 


Tomorrow, see if I can make it at least half way to town. If Clem is able to drop the trolley in ahead of me…  I won’t need to tow it. Yay!
