An interesting January

I have spent January up until the 26th renovating one of my units. It was finally finished and rented out on Australia Day. It is awesome not to have to worry about at least one of my units and to have a break from renovating. I have been working until 8:30 om every night of the week and it got very tiring by the time it was finished.

I've meant to be taking a break but since Australia Day but We have had a Cyclone menacing us since then. Tropical Cyclone Anthony turned out to be a bit of a fizzer. I even went out for a paddle on Sunday afternoon and the water was dead flat and there was no wind or rain. It would not have been so much fun down near Bowen though.

As soon as TC Anthony came and went though we started looking at TC Yasi. Yasi is a whole different beast to TC Anthony. Anthony was only a category 1, Yassi is going to be a minimum Cat 4 and is about 1000km wide. So even if it does follow it's present course and hit Cairns it won't be much fun here. If it turns South and hits near us it could be devastating.

Under current advice I want to put out a message to my friends in Cairns. Be safe and careful, My best wishes go out to you guys.

So with all of that said I have taken some photo's as a bit of a before and after. Hopefully my photo's will show very little change!
