Brad & Julie's Farm - Then Home Again - Almost!!

On our way North to Bundy we called in to see our friends Brad & Julie Bretag who have a farm near Tiaro just South of Maryborough. The boys had a great time as did Lee and I. Here's Joey & Sam with the very cute...Fudge the dog...
Some of Brad's 'other kids' looking stressed as cattle don't...a nice lifestyle on the farm...peaceful and quiet with good company...
Brad used these cattle yards to separate the cattle when they were sprayed for tics...one of the many jobs involved in looking after a cattle farm...the boys liked it too!!
This calf was having some difficulty getting milk...maybe it's a bit shortsighted??
Any farm would be incomplete without a farm ute...here's a classic Aussie ute. It may need just a little touch up here and there to bring it up to scratch...
Joey & Sam having a drive on Brad's tractor. The boys loved the farm...the hospitality of the generous Bretag family much appreciated by the durnies...
...Well, after 45,000km and seeing many beautiful places and having the pleasure of meeting some great people, we arrive back in Bundaberg. We left in late June 2010 and arrived back mid June 2011.

We're all very grateful for the opportunity and the experiences we've been able to enjoy together...not quite done yet though...the tenants in the house have a couple of weeks left!! Oh well, we'll just have to tough it out at the lovely Bargara Beach Caravan Park...
