Maggie Photo Diary - Day 4

Photo: Noonturnal animal. A possum chews into a loaf of bread when our backs are turned. Someone forgot to tell him possums shouldn't be out and about at midday.

Hazy days

Check out the huge dust storm that moved up through NSW and Queensland and hit us this morning. I can honestly say in 30 years I've never seen anything like it. Got to plan my day around staying inside now. My niece will be happy if we get to play the drinking game.

Little Red Dave travels in space and time

So, LRD has been abandoned on my bookcase again, this time being gassed along with the cockroaches and no doubt cursing my name. But there was a time in 2007 when he too enjoyed the sound of the waves while he slept, the warm sun on his skin on the beach, the cold beer on a hot day, and the children playing.

Here's Dave on the Island.

Little Red Dave does the Darwin Airport

But tomorrow he does a road trip to Magnetic Island. It has been too long since I've been home.
