What a difference the rain makes.

Birthday Wishes this month go to Nikita on the 8th,Goos on the 14th, Rene the 19th, Edwin the 24th. Happy Birthday all. At home we are celebrating Rick's 38th Birthday on the 17th of April. Happy Birthday son.

Our morning walk was most delightful. We had at least 50 mms of rain yesterday and the river is actually flowing, the lakes are once again filled and the bush smells just gorgeous. We even had a few drops while we walked and Mac does not like that but I persisted and thoroughly enjoyed that walk.

Another delight was that our team came up trumps yeterday. They played the other local team, the Eagles (we call that a Derby) and they won by 13 or 14 points. Well done the Dockers, hope that urges them on to better things. Sympathy to Gary and Geoff!!!Last night we had a "Country Music " show at the village and we went. The duo that played were very good singers, did not entertain so much but the music was excellent so we entertained ourselves. Trevor even danced a couple of times so he must have enjoyed it. We had to go home at 9 p.m ofcourse but then beggars can't be choosers so I went too. I had my first full night's sleep for years, last night , maybe it was the wine, maybe the dancing????
Thought a few photos of some of the other Arcadia Waters residents might be a nice change from seeing the Branch gobs all the time.Ina and Frank
Mike and Marina
Don,Shirley and Val.

I wish but can't change the image of the two old fogies so here we are at the Country music night.
