In case you are wondering............?

Where is Geraldton?
 
Some of you are probably wondering where we are in Australia.  
Here are a couple of map links to give you a location.
 
Geraldton is in Western Australia about 500km (310 miles) north of Perth.
 
 
What do we miss most about home?
 
Gaylene would say....... Grandkids, family & friends of course, then Mexican Food, a dishwasher, Cherokee (our dog), church, fall season
Norm would say....... all of the above, plus reliable internet connection, Bear Creek Men's Golf Club, mountain biking
 
 
What have we enjoyed here in Australia?
 
Living near the beach, having a housekeeper (comes with the apartment), friendly people, welcoming community within our church, hearing that "aussie accent" constantly, beef pasties, kebobs, living in a smaller town and Norm loving his work! And of course, those crazy kangaroos. Also, trying new foods at the company dinners.
 
 
Why are we here?
 
Norm is working about 30 km east of Geraldton at a Satellite Communications site, doing engineering and testing. And Gaylene would say...... my husband is working and I am on holiday, biking, reading, going to a craft classes, making new Australian friends, cooking occasionally, and  just being here with Norm.
 
 
Are we ever coming home?
 
Yes, we will be spending 3 weeks and Christmas in Maui, with Jeff, Laura, and Asher.
We will return to AZ sometime after Christmas.
 
 
Do we plan on coming back to Australia?
 
Only God knows what is planned for the future. Is there a possibility? Yes. It is an amazing country to visit and live in for awhile and we have met some amazing people here.
