Looking out of my sixth floor office window I can see two abseilers cleaning the opposite building's windows. It would make a great photo! I can't find the office camera, either. Let's hope the storm we had yesterday doesn't come back soon.
Meanwhile life plods on ...
Work hasn't been exactly thrilling. I don't feel particularly challenged, or even very busy. I'm taking a long hard look at what it is that I would like to do, though, and expect this will mean a significant change... maybe even re-training.
Ella's been working really hard on her teacher training as well as lecturing undergraduate students, so she's pushed to find any leisure time at the moment. We have managed to get out to Brisbane Forest Park at the weekends, however. The forest is massive and covers much of the West of Brisbane and we can get there in 15 minutes drive from our house. It used to be logged, but seems to be protected now.
The walking trails aren't signposted, but can be followed on a map... at first we thought this was unusual and a bit stingy, but now realise that it could be because of the difficult terrain! There are many extremely steep sections. I tried to get photos to prove it, but it's not easy to show the gradient using photos. The forest is great, with rainforest and dry forest intermingling, ruined only by the electricity pylons. Our plan is to try and walk all of the accessible tracks.
