The last walk was a washout, which is a pity because Janelle would have joined us. Instead, Peter - who was to lead us through Long Forest, the southernmost stand of mallee eucalypt in Australia and right next door to Bacchus Marsh - and I solved the world's problems in a room warmed by a wood fire. It was a dynamic conversation, Peter, so thank you.
Peter and his wife, Natasha, have built themselves a straw bale home in Merrimu, a locality in the east of Moorabool Shire. Check out http://www.peterandnatasha.net/
Today the rain has belted onto and briefly flooded our usually well-drained block. However, according to the weather gurus on TV, tomorrow will be fine in the afternoon. Our walk is in Ballan.
