Our New Baby

So I arrive in Australia, ready to relax some, as the last 8 months have been grueling.

I figure, I will play some on my game, work when it comes in, and enjoy restful weekends with John. That was not to be the plan, his computer started to have problems and we knew his car needed to be replaced.

We tried to tackle both issues at once. The computer was replaced first. John has a fellow that has built is past two computers. They have always been powerhouses in their time, but, it was time for something new. It turns out his friend is now semi retired, but he was willing to build John a new one.

Since he is now not working full time, he has moved out of the metro area and I guess most Americans would consider him away in the country, the boonies, the back of beyond.

I had to laugh when I thought about it. Only in Australia would we get this super high tech, fast, computer, fast enough to run my game, spekky, in the back of beyond, amongst the kangaroos.

Driving to his house…

Loved this bashful one 🙂
