Cats & Dogs

A group of us recently visited the Dakabin RSPCA

We all desperately wanted to take home each and every dog and cat we encountered. Sadly we were unable to, but if you're looking for a furry little addition to your family, check out the RSPCA. These guys need homes.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year! Here's a little video. The theme is new year's eve, an event that has come and gone but you may find this clip enjoyable if you happen to be one of the handful of people in the world that hasn't yet seen it...


Rather sweet. If you're into sweet..

Merry Christmas!

Here's James drumming up a storm at the State Library of Queensland as part of a recent event Crossroads presented on the 3rd of December in celebration of International Day of People with Disability

Oh-so-pretty!

Spring has sprung! Woohoo! Here's our resident cheeky gardener Pat amongst the flowers at Crossroads. It's all looking lovely. Nice work Pat!

Bridge to Brisbane

The annual Bridge to Brisbane took place on Sunday 11th September

And wow, just look at all those people participating in such a good cause!

Oooh and lookie here! Crossroaders Mikaela and Beth are there!

Congratulations to both Mikaela and Beth on raising funds for the nominated charity Legacy and we're all very proud of your achievements! 10 kms? Yikes! I'm feeling awfully puffed just thinking about it! Well done girls!

Land, Sea & Sky

Let's go bowling!

What to do when the weather isn't playing nicely and so the golfing plans had to be postponed at the last minute? Go bowling of course!

Ally
A 100-year-old woman from New Jersey has become the oldest competitor in the history of the United States Bowling Congress Women's Championships. While bowling she kept yelling at the pins, "Hey kids, get off my property!" (true story!)

And to finish off here's a little bowling tune by local band Wiseacre. Sing along! Sorry the quality isn't very good...

Gone Fishing...again...

Fishing has been a really popular option lately & this time the crew headed to the Woody Point Pier. Another gorgeous day in north BrisVegas!

Today we had this pretty assistant surveying the area for the best place to cast the lines (apologies if I'm not using the correct fishing terms here)

James baiting up & asking why the bait supply was running out so fast

Well, there's your answer James as to the dwindling bait supply. Mick has been feeding our smelly stash of prawn bits to our lovely assistant!

Everyone had a great time but unfortunately those sneaky fish just weren't biting today. Next fishing post will be a different story. We hope!
