Is technology bringing people closer together or driving them apart?

LooeyVille @LooeyVille (50) • United States 14 Oct

What's your take on how technology is affecting relationships? I can see it both ways. While on the one hand we can use technology to reach out globally and have instant communication with people, it also prevents people from...

They've been running a special for 3 weeks now where two people can eat for $19.99. The $19.99 includes two entrees (with two sides), and two drinks. Hubby and I both get the double cheeseburger with tater tots and a diet...

Red Hats in a small West Australian town

Judy Evans @JudyEv (363988) • Rockingham, Australia 14 Oct

We’ve spent a couple of nights, though not consecutively, in Mukinbudin. For a small town, it has a few nice attractions. The caravan park is well-appointed. It has a laundry with 2 washing machines and two dryers. We saw these...

The Calm Before the Storm

LooeyVille @LooeyVille (50) • United States 14 Oct

Thursday is the day we take the mother-in-law to get her neuropsych testing to determine for certain whether she has dementia, how far gone it is, and what to do about it. That's not going to be an easy day for her or us either...

Is water actually wet or does it just make things wet?

LooeyVille @LooeyVille (50) • United States 14 Oct

Any scientists in the house? This is akin to whether there's such a thing as darkness or is it merely the absence of light. When you take a shower is the water wet coming out of the showerhead or is it making you wet when it...

Left, right, left, right but actually it's all right!

Judy Evans @JudyEv (363988) • Rockingham, Australia 14 Oct

Some time back I wrote about a farm called Cleomine. It was named after the owner’s racehorse which was unbeaten in the years 1923/24/25. At the entrance to the farm is a windmill which, when it turns, activates the legs of a...

Baladjie Rock and the Supermoon

Judy Evans @JudyEv (363988) • Rockingham, Australia 14 Oct

I wrote about free-camping at Baladjie Rock. There are camping spots all round the rock which is huge so you don’t need to camp next to others if you’d rather be apart. We were a bit surprised at the number of campers there but...

I Burned The Bacon

LooeyVille @LooeyVille (50) • United States 13 Oct

For whatever reason I had it in my head this morning that bacon is supposed to take 3 minutes in the microwave. It's supposed to take 1 minute 30 seconds. Needless to say I burned the bacon. Thankfully the smoke detector didn't...

A supermoon at Baladjie, Western Australia

Judy Evans @JudyEv (363988) • Rockingham, Australia 10 Oct

We free-camped two nights at Baladjie Rock which is in the eastern wheatbelt of Western Australia. It’s not far from one small town but quite isolated from anywhere else. There was a supermoon last night. We climbed partway up the...

Caravan Parks in Australia - Part One

Judy Evans @JudyEv (363988) • Rockingham, Australia 6 Oct

I haven’t given much thought about whether some of our members really understand or know much about caravan parks so I’m going to tell you a little about some of the ones we’ve been to. I hope I don’t sound condescending....

The dry claypan that was Lake Perkolilli is now under water

Judy Evans @JudyEv (363988) • Rockingham, Australia 6 Oct

I posted yesterday about the Red Dust Revival where people race their ancient cars on a claypan. Luckily, the week-long event has just finished as they’ve had unseasonal heavy rains out there and the lake is now covered in 6...

Red Dust Revival on Lake Perkolilli

Judy Evans @JudyEv (363988) • Rockingham, Australia 6 Oct

While we were in Beacon, we saw this vintage car on a trailer and stopped to talk to the owner. The car was a 1928 Falcon Knight and he was going out to Lake Perkoliili (isn’t that just the best Australian name?) to race it...

Judy Evans @Ronrybs It would indeed. They have 'trials' and leave at 10 second intervals but at some point you'd think they'd be racing each other.

Which one is the 'real' barman?

Judy Evans @JudyEv (363988) • Rockingham, Australia 6 Oct

I won’t have internet over the next few days so I’m posting a couple of extra discussions. I’m sure I won’t fool any of you but when we went into the Nungarin Hotel after visiting the market stalls, we were taken by the barman...

Judy Evans @Ronrybs If he sneaks out without me catching him, I make him walk ten paces behind!! (That's a joke really but that's what I feel like doing.)

The Fates are havin’ a Laff

Ron Rybs @Ronrybs (20990) • London, England 3 Oct

My little misfortunes continue. A little over a month ago, only 30 feet from my front door, I had a fall. At first, I thought no great damage was done. Then I found my brand new glasses were destroyed. My neighbours came over and...

Heartwarming Video

RasmaSandra @RasmaSandra (89772) • Daytona Beach, Florida 12 Oct

Finding this video today made me glad to see such a wonderful person helping a cow. The poor cow’s calf had fallen into water and could not get out. In the video you see the cow stopping a car to get help for her calf who could...

RasmaSandra @RasmaSandra (89772) • Daytona Beach, Florida 12 Oct

Go and have a beer, and you might never go back home again. A mass shooting at a crowded bar on an idyllic South Carolina island left at least 4 people dead and another 20 injured, officials said. The shooting happened early...

Good grief, people, it's not even Halloween yet and there have already been signs up posted alongside the road advertising Christmas Decorating. I know people use companies now more than in the past to hang the wreaths on the...
