The boy left on his epic adventure yesterday morning bright and early. The kids didn't have time to get upset as they were also leaving for Miss 11's hockey game. He and his mates made it safely to Mt Magnet last night and to Wiluna tonight - although apparently part of today was done on the reserve tank as he ran out of fuel!
Meanwhile the kids have been keeping busy with a collection of boxes scrounged from around the house and the recycling bin...
This is the good ship "Cries Star", complete with car decks, helicopter and plane landing pads, and life boats. Oh, and an anchor chain made out of my quilting pins! Photps of the good ship "Paperclip" will follow as soon as it is finished.
And the weather was warm enough to have a mud bath...
Now I just have to clean the mud out the shower...SIGH! Gotta love 'em!
A mud bath, cool! Lol, it is FREEZING here today, I CANNOT imagine being outside dressed in my altogether. Nice ships, the kids have been working hard.
