Why can't everyday be like today

2015 has arrived and what better way to bring in the new year than with a few beers on the ocean, well Port Philip Bay actually. This time we launch at Patterson Lakes  and travelled out to about 12 meters to try and catch something...Channel 96 was full of "Where are the fish?" and " At least a bad day's fishing is better than a good day at work!", so we headed off to the beach with the thermometer hitting 40. We anchored off Carrum and the boys enjoyed diving in to the clear cool water.

School Christmas Carols

Christmas again! Boys had their Christmas concert at their new school. It was great seeing all the kids perform, and watching how they play the recorder.... or not in some instances :-) At least it looks like they enjoyed themselves whilst Mum and Dad sat on the hard ground slowly loosing feeling in the lower limbs. The boys have even brought home a few moves which they are beginning to build upon, watch out Justin!

PS. Santa has a small problem I think.

Martin's Birthday 2014

Martin turns 7, poor guy wasn't feeling that well on the day, and he had school, so we celebrated again on the weekend. They have moved schools and are enjoying the new one very much, bringing home a few surprise talents we weren't expecting :-)

The weather is finally warming up enough to get a slip and slide...the first of many for the summer. Plus, the veggie patch has got a life of its own, thanks to Seasol, I don't ever have to buy herbs again... anyone for tabouleh salad!



Happy birthday Marti

GoPro

Just got a GoPro 3+ Silver from a mate (thanks Tom) and I decided to test it out this weekend. It was time to break in the boat for her first voyage since Winter, so the GoPro came with. While happy with the video (shot in 720p-60) the camera while acceptable is does not hold a candle to a good point-and-shoot, not to mention I had to crop to 3:2. Time to get all the attachments to look like a right old plonker.



Keep living the dream till it ends
