Day 146 Gympie Wednesday 31st October 2012

Hi Folks,

A tropical day today. At one stage this afternoon it was raining in bright sunlight for about 15 minutes.

Susan spent most of the day sewing cushions for the outside chairs. I spent the day derusting and painting some fluoro lights. It was a pleasant easy days work. One of our hosts Roxy has toodled off for a few days at a women's retreat. Dan went to the local school today to talk to the kids about his specialty bees. he has quite a few hives here. Apparently there is a bee disease American Foulbrood  that infests hives where the only treatment apart from killing the bees and burning the hives is to irradiate the hives. This is done at a sterilisation facility in Brisbane. The weather is gradually improving and we had a nice sunset tonight although not enough for me to walk indie to get my camera. At this stage we move to our next host some time after Saturday.

Before

After!
A nice tea tonight of chops and veg prepared by Susan.

night folks

Cheers Simon
