gnarly camp Ugly week but all is good especially when this line summarizes your main concern after the camp "I was stoked to learn that I didn't miss any surf while I was gone. "
Proper attitude is everything.
How is soccer?
yo chet Hey Chet,
Great blog entries. Looks pretty nice over there except there is no snow :-). Richard always gets blisters! This summer he had blisters after a few hours on the badminton court. If you get a chance I would like to hear about the soccer team. I think it is great that you get that opportunity. Hope the waves are good.
hola good to hear form you and sounds like the master at the school is a bit strange...maybe he's a vampire!!! nice teeth...
Happy Easter..glad to hear your praying!! maybe you could pray for bigger waves!
Hope you have a good backpack.
Your mom was here last Sat. for a veggie thing at the Saturday Day Club house... I went with her and the Buddist's served all kinds of food ..It was good but don't really know what I ate. Your mom really enjoyed it. They also had programs of the girls orchaster and a goup of kids doing Hip Hop which was amazing..; they were so aggile.
Well I can't spell for crap so excuse the spelling.
We had Frodie while your mom and I went to the veggie thing.. she is SOO fat but a cute and a good dog.. I'm sure both dogs will remember you.
Take care love you grandma and grandpa
hola Well it sounds like your having a lot of fun downunder!!! hope you make the soccar team It would be fun for you and your good at it. Do they have La Cross there??
Hope your takeing lots of pictures to bring back with you...Your easter egg hunt reminds me of the fun all you kids had as little one's.
When our kids were little and with Jennifer and Katlin we had to hide the eggs a dozen times. It's a neat twist to dress up for the occassion.
I made choc. chip cookies tonite..will take some to Denise tomorrow and your mom is coming Sun. so if grandpa keeps his hands off them she can take a dozen home with her.
Thinking of you... enjoy your time in Aust. loves grandma
gone pro I printed the surf pic at the above right... everyone at work says you look Pro. I said "yep, thats my boy"
...they are wondering what the guy in the red trunks is doing...
where's the watermelon video? Looks like the Aussies have Halloween and Easter all mixed together...
I guess they get all confused down there with everything being backwards...
where's your costume?
I keep hearing about this watermelon contest... must have been good. Miss you1
Love Mom
Good to see your blog Your mom sent your blog link and a recipe. I read all your entries. Here, it seems you have been gone a long time. Glad to read that you have brought to Australia a true respect for life as you have expressed it in your writing. Take care of yourself and thank you for sharing your life.

Hi Chet, It is fun to read of your trip and see your photos. We are a wee bit sick of snow and ice here and are heading to Hawaii next week. Hope to see your folks soon. Keep having a great time down under.
nice wildlife photos! Wow that kukaburra is a really cool looking bird, I cant believe you got to touch it... I wonder if it is a pet...like our Jack bird was... I am glad he was a nice bird... that beak looks like it could take a serious nip.
How is your eye? Let me know ok, I am worrying about it.
mom
eye Sounds like your enjoying your new home....gosh to think there are people who don't just love rhubarb pie!!! I'll be right over.
The pictures are great..the bird is really cool and to think you could pet it...thats awsome too.
If you have pink eye you will need midication for it.. expect your mom will clue you in as what to do.
If you send me a street address I can send you grade money!!!
Take care love you grandma and grandpa
