We haven't written for a while as we have no internet at the new house yet. Why? Because the telecommunications company with the slogan "I've been everywhere, man" hasn't been able to provide us with the same internet service to an address 1km away from our old place!
It is a long time ago now but we did visit Joan and Alan when Julie indicated. We helped round up some cattle there (Ruth helped from inside the backpack) but Preston stayed under house arrest. It seems Preston's role on the farm is purely, um, ornamental.
Here is little one at our old home looking like she's ready for the big move (but in reality still being several weeks away from being able to crawl)
And here she is playing a duet with Cherie at the new house. Cherie has a knack of planning her holidays with us when we are moving home i.e. she plans them months before we even know that we're moving.

The new place has an interesting architectural feature in the orange bottle glass doors. They are very attractive in the afternoon light but mainly seem designed to screen views of the backyard and make the dining area dark.
Here we are on back deck with fledgling vegie patch beyond.

Here is our inaugral lunch on the deck with Neil, Ian, Heather, Leslie and Sue.
And here you can see little one's two teeth.
And since this photo was taken, she really is moving everywhere, man.
much love,
Brendan
