What about me? I must have emailed you a dozen times before I arrived! Granted, most of those emails went something to the effect of "Good heaven's Jack, what do I bring?!!!" But still! And speaking of not returning emails, I think that you owe me a few =) I'm glad to hear that you've returned home safe. Has anybody told you about the rainstorm we've had? 800mm in 5 days! It was insane! Chris nearly lost a bus on the way to Moran's Falls with the TPO group--Tane came to the rescue, and soon after the managers were brought in and there is a fabulous photo of Matt Perry examining the nearly-over-the-edge bus that they had all just managed to make worse! In the end, they had to rope that bus to Molly, and our only other bus was down at the repair shop so we had NO buses at all for a while! It was great fun. And Moran's Falls has been absolutely incredible lately. I never imagined it could flow so strong. All along the Border Track there are waterfalls that definitely aren't usually there, both of the Wishing Tree bridges have washed away, Elabana Falls is currently pouring OVER the rocks behind the sitting area forming a third waterfall (and that tree trunk up top has washed down), and the Canungra Valley Vineyards have drowned. Half our annual average in the first 5 days of the new year! I’m very sorry you missed it. But I hope you are having tons of fun in the snow. Email me when you get a chance, okay? I want to hear all about Oregon and what you’ll be getting up to this Spring. Hope to hear from you soon! God Bless! Hey! What about me? I must have emailed you a dozen times before I arrived!
