Progress

Things are happening slowly.  The truck will hopefully be delivered to us by the end of next week and then Bun can work out what storage options he wants to go with.  Once the truck has everything done to it, we can advertise the ute.
Vintage is starting to speed up, we have more grapes getting picked Fri pm/Sat am. Rain is forecast for next week so it will be good to know that more of the crop is gone.
Ben has started studying again and Callie has just started TAFE again this week. She's keen to get back into her studies again after nearly 4 months off.  She also seems to have started the countdown to the big trip, apparently it's only about 28 weeks away :)  Josh is busy driving tractors this vintage but looking further down the line, he's applied for the army and is also looking into getting work at the mines.
Jobs to do shortly include talking to a new accountant and organising how the bookwork for the business will be done while we travel.
I found that now you need an official marriage certificate to get a passport in your married name so I'm waiting on that before I can apply for a passport but we'll get Callie's done tomorrow.
I've been trying to walk further distances in preparation for next month's walk up the mountain. Bun and I walked into Berri yesterday morning, I think Ben said it's about 10kms. Lucky we've got a great neighbour in Jenny and she picked us up and gave us a ride home.
Well I've got an unexpected day off tomorrow so I should get a few neglected jobs done at home.
