Tues, 22nd Oct, 2019 Mum & Dad’s place, Cairns, Qld



More rain during the night and again this morning.

Drove to Wendy’s and over a cuppa caught up on her and Dave’s trip to Canada to see Sarah. She gave me a moose keyring and a calendar that Sarah was in (fundraiser by the cheerleading squad she was in). They had a great time and loved all the sightseeing.

Home for lunch – the sky is clearing and it is very windy.

Around to Clive and Rebecca’s for a cuppa and catch-up in the afternoon.

As I was about to leave the heavens opened again with a heavy downpour for about 5 minutes. 32ml today according to the weather bureau.

Paul rang for a chat which was great.

Cooked dinner then Valerie picked me up and we caught up with Susan and Christine at Cazaly’s for a cuppa and catch-up. Susan just became a grandma for the 2nd time and now her other daughter is expecting in November. She and Ross have just bought a caravan and Toyota Landcruiser but won’t get it til May next year. Valerie and Russell are still enjoying their beach house at Mission Beach. Their daughter Kirsten got married in Perth in April so they are hoping for more grandchildren in the near future. Christine hasn’t had any more grandchildren.

We had a play on the pokies and I even had a couple of little wins so it didn’t cost me anything to play.

We were heading out to the cars when the heavens opened up, so we quickly yelled goodbyes and bolted for the cars as it got heavier.

Saw a few cane toads on the road and the frogs were croaking loudly when I went to bed.

NO PHOTOS TODAY.
