Went for a quiet drive in the country today. Headed to some land in Mitchellton that we might be intererested in to buy but really didnt like the look of the neighbors. Must have been 20 camper trailers parked on the river. They looked friendly enough but all the same I wasnt keen on stopping ;D

Have fun folks!
Unfortunately I'm forced to have my public holiday for the bl**dy Geebung Cup (last Wednesday) so no long weekend for me.
By next year Im hoping to have that changed.
