How to Plan a Trip Feedback

Well Bonz, it is begginning to look like our bricks and mortar will be a deck built on to the side of our van in our bush block in Tassie, ha ha. Each time we think we want to build we go completely in the opposite direction!!! Which is so far ok! I like what you say about women having the last word, as I always have plenty to say in any conversation!!! We have just finished work in Walcha, NSW, on Wednesday and heading to Echuca, Vic, to start back monday. Via Port Macquarie(1nt) and The Entrance(2nts), which is not going to make it easy to go back to work, we love the coast so much. Hope all is great in Victoria!

Well I've just hit the big 31 and sometimes wonder if I will ever go home. I moved out of my last house in 97 in Tassie and now find it very difficult to stay in the one place for more than a couple of months. We worry that we may never want to live anywhere because we want to live 'everywhere'!!! Although being 'homeless' for 11 years does have the advantages of forgetting how to use a vacuum cleaner, mow lawns, cut wood, wash bloody curtains/walls etc and iron. Although now we've got the van I do have a couple of metres of floor to clean etc. etc. but I can ease my way back into it gradually, haha!!! What was your curve ball, hopefully nothing too bad, but one day you will get to see it. My mum has only just started travelling now she is 50, and she loves it so hopefully you'll get the chance too, and before you're 50:-)

Well I would love to be starting your trip with you on the 5th, instead we will be working in the shearing sheds near Echuca somewhere, starting on the 3rd. I hope you guys have a ball and I know your kids will love it. My brother has 2 kids and I wish he would do what you guys are doing but it doesn't look like he will ever leave Tassie with them. I am so excited for you guys it is going to be so much fun. 5 years in the van sounds good, no lawns to mow just move on to the next place! What sort of work are you planning on doing on your trip. We will probably spend May-June-July driving from Perth to Brisbane but we aren't even sure yet if we are going to Perth at xmas, we will probably make our minds up the day before, which is about what we do all the time. Sometimes we'll get to a T junction and toss a coin to see which way we'll go, of course that is when we are not at work!!! Have fun anyway. I've only just started looking at this site so I'll have to keep up with how your road trip is going. Take care.
