Of course I have been talking about doing so for ages now but Cecile is going to retire in a year or two and we have talked about renting out the house and hitting the road for a year or two

Not going to be cheap and I can see our rates going up to pay for it all.
Maybe we can put up tents in the back yard and provide breakfast for bushwalkers

Or, if my wild fantasy rises up within, is the ferry shifting hook, line and sinker to the Quay? If so, I would be very, very, very excited. A trip to Tassie — finally, after a 15 year hiatus!!!

Incredibly, they're shifting from Port Melbourne to Geelong with a 30 year lease. ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!!

Yep
Now the road in question hugs the curve of the bay between the rail line and the water.
We are looking forward to the greater economic activity in the area, it has been so very depressed for the past 20 years. And we might actually be able to do some minor catering for fellow bushwalkers as we are a only kilometre or so from there.
