Quick Update

I know I haven't posted in a while. It's been a Little Hectic here. But there is some definite Good news. Bear our poor little puppy has been all fixed up His little back leg has healed and he's running around the back yard bringing destruction to all potplants. He does still have one problem though. His ankle joint seems to have sustained some damage in the fall as well. He can now over rotate his ankle joint, which he should not be able to do. The vets think that he has damaged a tendon in there and it might need another round of surgery. The bonus is that the vets cannot do this surgery we would need to book Bear in with a specialist when he is in Town. This surgery would make the repair of the broken leg look like a nice cheep surgery due to the involvement of the specialist. Oh well, we will have to see how this develops.

Paddling has been going well. We have finished our regatta season and have started Training Corporate crews for our Corporate regatta that is on the 19th of October. Not to far away now.

Min is getting right into training for nationals states and other races for her rowing. Now is the time when the Seniors start training for regattas. Seniors is actually the younger crowd. Masters is anyone over 25 and seniors is between schools rowing and masters. Min went away with Masters earlier in the year and is now training to go away with the seniors team.

My plants aare going well. I will post a photo of my Wollami pine soon I also have some tree removal to do. Bernie has seen this and even Helped out ALOT while he was here. The wattle trees that I planted when I first bought the house are dying and it's time they came out. I have bought a number of trees to replace them but it will bring a definate change to the look and feel of the yard. Oh well now I just need to hire a mulcher and start chopping.

Min and I will be in Sdney for this comming weekend for a 30th birthday party. Unfortunately it's a bit of a flying visit and I will not have time to visit family much. It's really a bugger as i will be so close but I will talk to people tonight and see who I can see.

Love to all and I will write again soon.
