    Looks like you're having fun!

April 2019 Dogless If I counted up the years of my life I’ve spent without a pet, I am guessing it would be less than 5 years. Most of my life I’ve lived with dogs, but I’ve also cohabitated with   cats and various guinea pigs, hamsters, birds, fish, and even hermit crabs. I recently lost my   buddy Teddy.   If you have also shared your home with a little buddy, you get it. My house is empty.

   We stayed in Maroochydore, Queensland, Australia. Jeff and Clare's friend Scotty has a condo there. We could watch the sunrise without getting out of bed!  It's the sunshine coast but we got a good bit of rain.  Good thing they have spots to bag your brolly!  Clare and I spent quite a bit of time shopping and floating in the pool while the guys swam, biked, ran and fretted!!   Watched kayak races from our balcony.    sunset  Actually saw some kangaroos on the side of the road! You don't see that in Spencerport!       We came to Australia so Lou, Jeff and Simon could do the Mooloolaba tri. Clare and I did the twilight 5k a couple days before.     Here's the altitude. You know how I love hills!!😡       Clare coming in. They interviewed her at the finish!  The sea was angry all the days leading up to the tri! That's no lake Ontario! ...
