A Journal to impart knowledge and facts |
July 22, 2015 I'm going to start today to record on a daily basis whatever happens to strike my fancy. So, it is a very cool breezy day. I just posted 5 short book reviews to The Monthly Reading Challenge. I'm suppose to put away some winter wood today from the woodpile outside but I'm playing hookey from work to write so starting this blog will get done. I'm having a daily fight with a flock of English Sparrows that are trying to take over my barn. They are making a terrible mess so they have to go. I have destroyed several nests so far they don't leave but they get out of the barn when I am around. I'm just starting the fight so I guess I don't know how far I have to go to discourage them. I'm trying not to spread myself to thin on WDC because I find so many things that are interesting here and I am trying to work on a new story. I really enjoy sitting at my desk with a cup of tea and reading blogs on WDC. |

I also was involved with reading a book that I needed to return to the library. So, my travel experience in Australia is suffering. Nevertheless, Time Zone is a blast. I love mini golf so of course, I talked the Princess and Blue Moon into one game. Andre can play too. One game is all there is time for if I move onto some of the other experiences. "Let's Go Jungle" and "Mini Rider 3D" are two of the other hands on moves I tried out. ![]() ![]() ![]() I'm ready for Sydney. There is a hop on hop off ferry; I plan to buy a ticket and use it a lot. What are the up- front plans? I have to visit the Taronga Zoo. It was started October 7, 1916. That's an old zoo. according to https://www.wikpedia.org, it is divided into 8 zoogeographic regions, has 4000 animals and 340 species. It will take some time to cover it properly. That is on 52 acres. I wonder if I have to walk the whole thing or if I can ride part of the way? Guess I will find out when we get to Sydney. See you there! ![]() |
