Home; Return to the Mother Ship

Because of the heat, the distance and the load, we took an extra day to get home and managed to unload Wallace into a garage before the rain started.
With the sound of rain on the roof and thankfully a more tolerable temperature, a cup of tea in hand we truly felt we had travelled to the edge of the solar system.


Now, back on Earth the reality sets in. We have still got a way to go before we can say we aimed for the stars and got there, so this is why we've started this blog. To share the journey. Don't expect regular posts from now on. We'll add bits and pieces as we achieve more milestones. The first of them might start in a few more weeks when Doug's brother will come to advise us and maybe help in installing the new/reconditioned 1000 motor. Judy's been put in charge of the interior, relining, fitting the seats and finishing off the dash. Doug's in charge of the exterior and mechanical side of things. We have many other projects under way including more work on Lucy and the caboosey in preparation for the Nationals in Port Macquarie, in April, so apart from the above motor work, we don't anticipate any other work to start until after our Muster in June and a trip we have planned in July. Until then...
