Marty is reading "Building Your Own Home" by George Wilkie, and I am reading "The Sheer Ecstasy of being a Lunatic Farmer" by Joel Salatin. We read the best bits to each other, it's almost like reading two books at the same time. Marty showing me all the ways one can make foundations, and me reading almost whole chapters to Marty.
Marty started working again for the same company, only extremely casually, he only went in one day last month! It's so fantastic having him home all the time! We're still cleaning the local pub every weekend, and the less we do, the less we need.
We stopped in at Morgan's Lookout in Walla Walla, on the way to Albury for some food shopping, climbed the granite boulders and explored the surrounds. We spent an afternoon walking around the beautifully natural Mundawaddery Cemetery right near us. There is such a diverse number of local plants, I just love the trees that shade the cattle that utilise the area occasionally. It's certainly something to aspire to. We'll have to check out The Rock on the way to Wagga Wagga next time perhaps.
Duel BBQing has been a thing. When you've got an 8 hour brisket going in the kettle and need a little something to tide us over, a steak in the BabyQ is delicious.
Brisket has been our favourite so far, and it's very well priced.
We're still eating meat and drinking water, and mostly feeling only benefits.
Hoping we can get away with as little as possible for a while yet. :)
