Kelcey Tier


Our canvas covered reservoir is now protected by an electric fence... Are we code Orange in Devonport??


Katherine is not aware of any codes... especially not codes of conduct.

Oma sharing a beer with me... At least I walked up the ridge today, what is oma's excuse?

Interlaken

I went out with Prickles from Devonport HHH to survey a plantation forest.


Stopped at Pencil Lake on the Lakes Highway. It is still frozen over.

Other Exciting Blogs

I added a list of blogs I am resposible for on the bottom of this website. Scroll down and see what happens in my blogs!

Back to the norm

The kayaks are still under the house. Has been raining a fair bit lately, but we always find time to do our quick up and down the Kelcey Tier walk without getting wet.

So it does look like a bit of a waterfall, we love it here. We jump in the car for a 2 minute drive and walk our standard loop. There are several varieties, this is the quickest up and down and around. Just under 4kms and we take just over 40 minutes to walk it.



See that spike? That is where I slipped... maybe...

And now that we are using the gadgets, the pedometer counted 3982 steps which it calculates the walk to be 3.2kms. I shall increase the step size setting from 92cms per step to maybe 100cms. That way the pedometer is probably more correct next time.

Interestingly the pedometer, the GPS, as well as the camera are all inside my phone; the Nokia N95. And so why is it that I still lie awake at night thinking about the i-phone? Sexier? Don't I care that myN95 does it all nicely? Do I need another steep learning curve to change gizmo? Like dreaming of a 21 year old blonde... The prospect of retraining one of those is daunting too. Lets just stick to what I have and what does me well, the N95!

Sunset from our front door. This is the cat's view from her bed-basket too incidentally, no wonder it is her favourite place in the house.
