    16:20.., its that attention to detail that has endeared you'se to so many of us, your appreciation of the finer things that most of us miss, and I want to thank you both for your humility and empathy to this world around us all.

    Your "Bit by a Wombat" story is like my "Bit by a Shark" story. Many years ago I was on Dangar Island in the Hawkesbury River at a friends weekender. Some locals had caught some small sharks nearby and put them on the local wharf. I used my foot to try to turn one so I could see the mouth and my big toe brushed against a tooth and drew some blood. So 60 years later and now living in Canada I still talk about the time I got "Bit by a Shark". Recently became a Patron and really enjoy your videos and lifestyle.

    Wombat borrows are something to behold. They can be wide enough for a small human to go down them.

    What a great place! It's amazing when you think at the top of Everest there are sea fossils. So even at 29,000ft above sea level you'll find evidence of life dating back 65,000,000 years. Then there are the white cliffs of Dover. All dead sea creatures. We are but a breath on this planet. Glad you are making the most of it! Take care.

    Lots of history.
    Wonder if the wombats are a food source ....maybe big birds of prey.
    Gee no shortage of criminals ...
    That was great scenery from the peaks...and a good workout up and down.
    Yous must of slept well after that hike.
