Bush in Woodstock, February 2005. It was green even though the rainy season was very short this year. The river was flooding only for 3 to 4 days and water disappeared quickly. This year we couldn't enjoy swimming almost at all.
Around 100 metres from our house to the bush we could hear dingo's howling at night. One morning we saw a big one. It sounded a bit strange. Like a dingo-dog cross. Obviously there were some dingo crosses living there. Anyway Timo never saw them when he took the dogs fro a walk in the bush. But when Timo was already in Cairns, Nancy took the dogs there one morning and the dingos attacked came very near and tried to attack the dogs. She managed to chase them away by screaming.
A house deeper in the bush. This house used to belong to Cavills farm but it was sold afterwards.

In the end of January Nancy had a vacation and travelled to Singapore for Chinese New Year. Timo stayed at home because he had something interesting going on on work front. After a phone interview he was given a flight ticket to fly to Cairns for a job interview.
yellow Kanna flowers in the corner. Behind the flowers there is the duck pond. And behind the duck pond there is the chicken coop with 2 roosters and 7 hens.

Oh, this is a paradise to live but we think we still have to move away because of work.
These pictures hear represent Timo's memories. January 27th when Nancy flew to Singapore it was 3rd anniversary of Timo's moving away from Finland. It was the coldest winter in Finland when he left, temperature was about 20 centigrades below zero and snow in the ground.
