Happy New Year from Oz!
| Hello everyone:
Greetings from sunny & hot Perth! Had 4 gorgeous and relaxing days in a beach town about 3 hrs south. Mostly read and chilled out (lots of backgammon & cribbage as well). Flies were in abundance there. Have I told you about the flies in Australia? They are worse here than anywhere. Spent last night at a barbie with some friends and greeted the New Year with lots of hope and dreams in our hearts. We feel that 2005 will be our year. It's been difficult to tear ourselves away from the tsunami coverage. Things that have effected us in the past do not compare. We always have had each other and know our families are still here. That is the most important thing. Our friends John & Briana Taylor and girls from Lafayette, CA (some of you have met them in the past) were in Phuket for Christmas/New Year. We have been unable to reach them and are very concerned. So our prayers go out to so many who have lost everything. Our New Years "resolutions" are to walk comfortably (Whitey), better health and more excercise (both of us). Get moved to the states comfortably and get out of our financial debt. We feel we are navigating our own future instead of having it dictated by events. (Whitey is writing 2 books & a song that he wants Jimmy Buffet to sing - hmmmmm). But we will work on the other goals. Looking forward to this blog page. Too cool! Love you all, Max and Whitey |
