Tough Day at the Office
Here in Tassie, life's good
I just had to share. It appears I left Winter far behind us.

Yes, Bernie, that is true. I was 'born and bred' Tasmanian but had the extra head removed when I first retired many years ago 
Having come down here from NW Victoria, I find it like Vic was two months ago, yet unfortunately NW Vic in now in drought, and crops are being harvested as fodder.
I don't envy Tasmanians the ever lasting cold...but that does help creates that lovely English/European scenery.
More to enjoy.

Yes Bruce, only up to 1.5 metres which is almost calm, but still many people got sea sick.BruceS wrote:Certainly looks a peaceful spot!

When are they going to open up the barway at the mouth of the Murray so you can do the trip?
