Reading Upon High,


In 1988 we moved out to a farmlet, 33 km out of Collie, in a place known as McAlinden. It was the former paddock on a large sheep farm. And we spent the next 4 1/2 years living in a shed, while we built the house.

I was kinda lost. The only friends i had nearby were a couple of hours bike ride down a rather dangerous hilly back road. It's here where I really indulged my love of reading.

Little Sisters are the best


Of course the language that came out of my sisters mouth that day was a little more elaborate and pretty articulate for a 7 year old. And there were 3 kids, not just Daryl. Daryl was to die about 10 years later in a pretty horrific car accident. 
Something all my siblings have that I dont is a lack of fear. I tend to over think conflict situations where they just charge in. I envy that a little.
