For all the right reasons

Anyone who has known me for any length of time knows all about my mate, Leigh!! I met Leigh about nine years ago (April 3, 1997 to be exact!) through our shared love of the Seahawks. Since that time the journey has only gotten better!

From the start, Leigh told me bits and pieces about Aussie Rules football. My interest kept growing, rapidly I might add, and now...well, how many people do you know who come to life at 11:30 p.m. because a footy game is on?!? I'm proud to barrack for Richmond! Go Tigers!!!

How can you know Australia and not love it? From the first web sites Leigh sent to me on the outside chance that I might find something interesting there, my dreams took flight. (Not literally, I'm sorry to say. Not yet anyway!) He's gone to too much trouble to keep it all to myself so I've posted it here for your enjoyment. Just wander around at your leisure but I dare you not to fall in love with the country and the people of Australia.

Speaking of people, did I mention the rest of my adopted Schneider family?! Leigh and Cathy have five lovely children! Click here for a story of friendship I'd love to share with you!

So many dreams



colour and oomph!
I've never known anyone who does surprises quite like Leigh! Is that the Kenworth I hear?! On these pages, you'll find links that will take you places with much colour and oomph!

travel
Blue Mountains...waterfalls...kangas and koalas...the bilby and the wombat. I think you'll enjoy these links to cities, mountains, rain forests, beaches and countrysides.

thingies!
Thingies are links to web pages that don't fit in "normal" categories!!! You might find links to newspapers here or a fun fact site or...oh, just have a look, would you?!

government
Purple Things. :-) It's a long story and to tell it, I'd need numbered lists in a multi-level format -- groan!!! Purple wannabes click here for government and history links! hee hee!

sweet tooth
YOWIE!! (I just had to say that!) If cookies are biscuits and candies are confectioneries, what will we find when we ask for pudding?!? CAKE??? Get your lollies here!

Aussie Rules!
Australian Rules Football!! It isn't rugby and it isn't soccer. And it certainly isn't cricket!! But it is a fast paced game with non-stop action and once you see a speccie, you'll be hooked too!!



My heart will always be half Australian!

 

Hope you enjoy traveling through Australia! If something in particular catches your eye, drop me a line to let me know! I'd love to hear your thoughts!

This page is dedicated to my dear friends, the Schneiders!

May the journey be long
May the fun never end
