Hey Light..I was just about to start a thread about Australia day...along with the really hard australia day quiz...

Well, our biking gang is doing a camping/mtn biking weekend. Ian & some folks are already down in Dwellingup probably drinking a smidgen ...(i couldn''t get today off) and planning some evening rides..

It's gonna a be HOT HOT HOT this weekend...40c forecasted for tomorrow, 39c saturday..I can see us sitting by a (possible) waterfall (there might not be any water at the moment..) during the day & biking later in the day.

Sad to say we're unable to roast marshmallows or anything dealing with campfires-that'll have to wait until our fall camp n ride..

Enjoy your day.

HAPPY AUSTRALIA DAY GIRLS

I'm a teller of stories, I'm a singer of songs;
I am Albert Namatjira, and I paint the ghostly gums.
I'm Clancy on his horse, I'm Ned Kelly on the run;
I'm the one who waltzed Matilda, I am Australian.

I'm the hot wind from the desert, I'm the black soil of the plains;
I'm the mountains and the valleys, I'm the drought and flooding rains.
I am the rock, I am the sky, the rivers when they run;
The spirit of this great land, I am Australian.

We are one, but we are many;
And from all the lands on earth we come.
We'll share a dream, and sing with one voice,
"I am, you are, we are Australian."

(SEEKERS)

Thanks, TH! I feel ever so much more learned now for that link. History - the good and the bad - I love it. I even know who the Seekers are and can sing along (that's the bad, getting old).
