Reflections on 2022

 In 2022 we did three road trips, my Multiple Myeloma remains in dormancy and I did so much crocheting my arm started to hurt.....


In April - May we took our caravan across the Nullarbor, to the Victoria High Country, Snowy Mountains and Blue Mountains, along the Great Dividing Range in New South Wales, visiting friends, bakeries and breweries along the way.

On the way home we went to the Flinders Ranges and Arkaroola in South Australia:

Our second road trip was to Francios Peron National Park, near Monkey Mia, 800km north of Perth. 

We stopped at Kalbarri for a couple of nights and here we are at Nature's Window.


Sunset at Big Lagoon

Stand up paddle boarding


Where red dirt cliffs meet turquoise waters


Our third trip was down south and we went to Elephant Rock at Denmark

Here are some of the pieces I crocheted:

Shawl I crocheted for my daughter in law with Scheepjes wool.

Temperature Blanket for my Grandson's first year....

I took my 38 Mate Myeloma Australia cap with me on my travels;

All the best for 2023, stay safe, stay strong and stay happy and healthy.
