An Adventure in Nerdiness: What it's like to be married to an engineer



A nerd (adjective: nerdy) is a person, typically described as being overly intellectual, obsessive, or socially impaired. They may spend inordinate amounts of time on unpopular, obscure, or non-mainstream activities, which are generally either highly technical or relating to topics of fiction or fantasy, to the exclusion of more mainstream activities.

To Sanna and Riley, Love Cinderella

Dear Sanna and Riley,

Everyone here is SO excited for their big trip to America!  Aunt Katie and Uncle Nick have been packed for days now but Simon and Reggie did most of their packing today.  Take a look!

Cania Gorge


Nick and I ventured from the coast this Sunday and drove two hours west to Cania Gorge National Park.  The drive was beautiful, cutting through cattle grazing land where cows walked right up to the car.  The road turned from a two lane paved road, to a one lane paved road (where you were forced off the road if someone was coming in the opposite direction), to a gravel road.  

The park was really pretty and offered many “bush walks” throughout.  It featured several caves and aboriginal rock art from thousands of years ago.  Overall, a great way to fill a Sunday!

We thought we better get out of his way!

Tannuum Revisited

Back to Tannuum Sands to fill a Sunday afternoon...




Some type of swim club...not exactly sure but it seems very "Australian"
We liked their swim caps


The lifeguards wore the hats too
