And I envy you, Jean, living in Tasmania. My wife and I have been there
twice and still didn't see it all! The scenery - the friendliness of the
people - the lack of the rat race. To say nothing of that incredible
football field in Queenstown covered in pea gravel! I thought that a flying
tackle over that stuff would take the hide off the players, but we were
assured that it wasn't so - the gravel simply rolls away underneath them.
And then there's that Victorian police station in Burnie covered with ornate
cast-iron lacework.
I'll go back to Tassie any time.
