I channeled my inner cowgirl and headed off for a weekend of red dirt and rodeo watching!
Mullewa is usually a quiet town located 450 kilometres north of Perth. However when the annual Muster and Rodeo is on it attracts thousands of people to the town. Many of the contestants are from interstate and there were even a number of overseas competitors. All putting their skills to the test to win some prize money by competing in various events over the weekend.Read More »
Perth has been putting on a show with its glorious Autumn weather. We even hit the beach, kayaked and swam. It is amazing how your mood lifts as soon as your feet hit the sand. You feel relaxed as soon as you breathe the salty air deep into your lungs.
Welcome to ten on ten! On the 10th of each month I share 10 photos from our family life.
I was craving some time in nature, a craving I have on a regular basis. We filled up the picnic basket with goodies, put the kayaks on the roof of the car and set off.
Our first stop was Bells Rapids which is located in the Swan Valley. The children lead the way so of course we were scrambling over rocks and taking every trail that caught their eye.
That is correct I am doing a course at uni on how to take a selfie! Who would have thought such a course was available. The course is actually called Photography and Social Media and the main idea is to create an online identity or brand.
There are so many different sides to me whether it be professional, social or creative. I am trying to create images that say something about me!Read More »
A blank page in the diary for the weekend was staring at me! Do we stay home and get some chores done or go camping? Before you know it we were getting ready to spend a night in the bush.
“One night pack light” says Dixie. Is that even possible when you have children? I tried my best to just take the essential items.Read More »
The children were playing happily so I snuck on the computer to check my emails. Sitting in my inbox was an email to say that one of my readers had nominated Let Me Be Free for the Travel Blog Awards held by Mr Promocode. I was blown away to discover that some thought my content was worthy of a nomination.
The car and camper trailer was packed and we were ready to set off for the Easter long weekend. The only problem was we had no booking and no where to go. We hoped to get a site at Sandy Cape Recreational Park which is a first in first severed basis campground. It seems that everyone else had the same plan and the place was full to the brim.
What were we to do? Where will we stay? Suddenly I remembered a camp ground we had seen on one of our previous adventures. We headed a little further up the coast to Milligan Island Camping Ground and thankfully we managed to get a site.Read More »
Welcome to ten on ten! On the 10th of each month I share 10 photos from our family life. A little snippet of our days.
Perth is having glorious Autumn weather and we are soaking up the suns rays, heading to the beach every chance we get. Making the most of the weather before it changes.
In an attempt to improve the fuel economy of our HZJ105 Landcruiser, through the process of elimination we started with checking the valve clearances. We purchased a T & E tool which didn’t work as sold for our application, some modifying was required.Read More »
We have camped with our children since they were infants. I must admit I was nervous when we strapped our little bundle of joy into the car and headed down a rough dirt track into the Aussie bush. We camped in a remote location with no amenities, just plenty of fresh country air and tall trees to give us shade.
