Things have been very quiet around here - so have combined the months of January and February.
Took grandson Ben fishing at Googong and this is the picture he drew of the day. The detail he remembered was fantastic - the outboard motor could not be used so was elevated out of the water; he was using a spinning reel, I was using a bait caster; the fish of the day were Redfin; and the swirly bits were the dreaded southerly wind that chased us home. Ben was reluctant to show me that he had drawn himself catching a fish, and not Pop! 😃
