At the moment one of my challenges is to try to say yes to every opportunity, and that’s how I found myself racing across the ocean in a yacht! I have never been sailing before and it was an awesome experience. It was a race day so I did my best to stay out of the way and do what I was told, and boy it was great to sit on the boat with my feet hanging over the edge and a beer in my hand!

As part of my small town experiences I decided to enter my jam in the Esperance District Agricultural Show. My strawberry jam didn’t win anything, but I’m glad I did it and the rest of the show was pretty cool too. It was great to hang out with mates, watch the motocross jumping, the fireworks, go on a few rides and eat show food.
The Surf Club season is underway and it’s keeping me pretty busy on the weekends with training courses, looking after nippers and just hanging out at the beach. Patrols don’t start till December when the weather starts warming up and the beach gets busier.
I went back to Perth for the weekend for my cousin’s wedding. It was a beautiful outside wedding at Lamonts followed by a reception that was so much fun! It was awesome to get on the dance floor with the whole family!

While I was in Perth I went to the Kaleidoscope Festival in the City of Joondalup. It was an incredible display of lights and I was amazed by the number of food vans there were. We went on the last night and apparently so did every other man and his dog in Perth!
