It's getting there.
Two old comrades (49 years married) have left the safe life of international teaching to begin a new venture: owner-building and farming for self-sufficiency in Franklin, Tasmania. Our 4 kids, and 10 grandkids, plus numerous friends, are encouraging us in our craziness. The last 10 years have seen another job come and go, cardiac bypass, a cancer battle, and learning on the job to build. ..and we live in Paradise: the Huon Valley, Tasmania.
Shed and panels and caravan
It's getting there.

About Me
- Pablito
- I am about to start my 25th or 26th career in 49 years, and in our 38th address. Who says I'm unstable? ADD is fun for me, but a tad stressful on my wife.
