@Moses_Young ... Not too windy here in Melb... But so far this summer its been particularly cold and humid which is odd cos down here we get some humid days when its hot but this humid coldness is different for this part of Oz...
Looking ahead, they are forecasting a heatwave for Victoria. Finally. Its mid Jan and some sunshine is well overdue...
Iv got my van ready to take off in a few weeks, when i get my license back... I was planning on going to NSW but the more i look into it the more im tempted by the Apple Isle... Has anyone been there? It looks likes heaven on earth... I'll tour Tassie first... Use it as a little practice run... Then, i'll take what i've learnt, remodify a different vehicle and do the big island... Straya...
If i want bush
(which i do) then Tassie is the place to go. They have unique flora and fauna species which is cool... The whole southwest is wild... They have albino roos, Tassie devils, oversized platypus', wallabies the size of roos and i can't wait to learn what birds are endemic to that gorgeous corner of the world. Some people say that the Tasmanian Tiger still roams the wilderness and looking on the map, there is more than enough area to harbor such a creature...
Anyway, out of the city concrete bush and into the real bush, the one created by the omnipotent one. I can't wait to do the simple things, take in the beauty of the landscape, meet different people, town folk are so lovely compared to city folk, watch the animals, birds,
(i love birds) star gaze from pitch black locations out bush, away from the whitewashed city smog sky where it is clear...
And just be, at peace, before the wonder of God... No burdens or places to be or stressing over money or time...
Its funny cos years ago, when i was the prodigal son, i lived such a material life... Dealing drugs and blowing money.
And when i stopped it trained myself to be more resourceful
(to say the least).
Physically, the only thing we need to survive is food, that's it... More in needed spiritually, mentally, socially, obviously, but food is all we need to maintain a healthy standard of those things in life...
I can't wait now, so close to hitting the road im getting edgy. Might open a little thread, posting pics of my travels, i dunno, we'll see, i get embarrassed sometimes sharing my personal stuff. But that embarrassment comes from pride and i have nothing to be proud about. And if even one person can gain something positive from reading my words than glory be to our Lord
