Port Lincoln

Hi to all, here we are in Port Lincoln, we left here in 2000. We used to call Port Lincoln home for around 15years, Fae & I had a lovely home over looking the beautiful Boston Bay.
We are at the Port Lincoln caravan park at North Shields, around 12klms from the city. A very nice park, it was owned by some friends many years ago, they sold it after the big fire. The new owners let it run down as they wanted to build units here. Luckily for us the council stepped in and stopped the development. New owners again now and they are doing a wonderful job bringing it back up to scratch. The sites are generous and right on the ocean front. Would keep most fisherman happy, with beach and jetty fishing right at the park. There is a road house at the entrance, owned by the park that has everything you would need including groceries and cooked meals, yummy!
I must admit to feeling very comfortable here at present as we know a lot of people and places here. Just driving around brings back fond memories of years gone by. We are bumping into people who recognize us then walk by and you can almost hear their brains ticking over with 'I know them from somewhere'!! It's quite funny, as we do the same, trying to put names to faces.
One thing I had forgotten was the wind!!! Bloody he'll does it ever stop blowing? I remember now, it blows most of the time. The awning is up and down as the wind goes from fresh to strong, around 25 knots. We have caught up with my sister Wendy and her Husband Phil. We saw Wendy at my birthday but I have not seen Phil since we left. We also caught up with friends Dennis & Pat whom we last saw at Fae's birthday when we first moved to Cairns. Dennis built and owned a 33ft yatch called Free Spirit, so named in honor to a lost son, we have sailed quite a few miles in her including to Kangaroo Island for a weeks holiday. Dennis & Pat have moved into a beautiful home in a retirement village. Very swanky too I might add. It was great to catch up and will get together for a meal a bit later.
Fae is very busy with her talks and even made the local paper, she will want a rise soon!!
Did I mention the bloody wind? And the temperature, it has been averaging around 17 during the day and about 9 degrees, my fridge at home does not get that cold,buuurrrrrrrr!! Misty sleeps under the cover most nights, soft dog! OK this is week 3 and still not used to the wind and temp. Never mind we will head north in about 6 weeks, via Broken Hill, Longreach etc.
Well that's all for now as my fingers are bomb from the cold.
