My sincerest apologies.  It has been far too long since I have made the time for a little writing.  I'm certain that you understand. Life, especially farm life, is really good at challenging anyone's ability to keep up. Dont fear, I have been constantly making short notes and little tags to remind myself of all the different things I need to discuss.  I have articles half written discussing the tragic attack on parliment hill, the very recent events in downtown Sydney, a magical trip down the sunshine coast, a long story about a half mad danishman, an in depth look at a dive bar, and so much more.  

To be honest, Im thankful that I have been too busy to write. My previous experience in Leeton has reminded me that I am at my happiest and healthiest if I stay occupied. Be it exploring, or working.  This recent job was also quite the adventure and not always a happy one.  For one thing, the people I worked with were and are world class.  There is a young man in that companies employ who can do anything, and if you ask me, should be doing anything else. They also have an older gentleman, he clearly remembers a time when things were different and maybe more positive.  You could clearly see him clinging to that memory and doing his very best to keep it alive in the public eye.  

It takes a certain kind of person to be out here doing this sort of stuff.  I realized that very soon after I landed in Oz. I also noticed that I like those kind of people. Risk takers, dreamers, idealists.  There are also hippies, vagabonds, and runners. It takes all kinds.  I have also noticed and I do not like structured elitist attitudes.  I know why people around the world love Canadians. The answer is simply this, we value freedom and equality and give those things to everyone.  Yeah we are polite, but we are also genuine.  That genuine nature is what carries us. I was half way around the world when a foolish, misguided youth took the life of a Canadian hero on Parliament hill. Australia watched in wonder as our nation handled that issue and continues to heal.  The world watched in wonder. The world watched us at our lowest and they watched us behave to our very best.  

So Im going to try to edit a couple of these things and see how they go. 

Take it easy.
