The Goat

The race that I am training for!

Spring in New Zealand





Lucy is just over three and a half and Hope is just over 1 and half years old now. Time flies!

We still live in the same place in Upper Hutt. Searching around for homes closer to the city...less driving = more better. No immediate plans to move, just looking.

It is spring in New Zealand and unsettled! Windy, sunny, raining, cold, warm...all in one day if not one hour!

I am training for a race called The Goat with my friend Allison. The Goat is an off-road, half marathon on the ski fields outside Whakapapa near the centre of the North Island. Race day is 4 December. www.thegoat.co.nz.

Our vege garden is doing good and strong and we just picked some things yesterday for dinner. Strawberries are planted and I am keen to plan tomatoes this year.

We had a wonderful time in the US and Canada in July and August of this year. Lucy hasn't stopped talking about everything we saw and did. The trip made a big impression on her.
