Had a great weekend visiting an antique fair and filling the boot with goodies!! On Sunday Went to The Hattah Desert Enduro Near Mildura for Dirt Bikes Which was an amazing event! This time we stood near the starting line as hundreds of motorbikes started and took off one after the other.
Trekking for miles in the bush to find good spots to see the motorbikes, and then climbing "Big Red" to watch them climb a mighty red sand dune, The view from the top was so surreal and beautiful, I said "Imagine living in the city and waking up one morning to this view" The Australian Bush is incredible, no wonder people travel from all over to be ride in the event. It was a bit lacklustre this year in the sense that Toby Price was out with a broken back, every year I have been the Number 1 would be miles out in front. But I realised he was standing right near us spectating which was cool! His calf muscles were crazy huge!
At the end of the race we ended up racing back to the Antique fair to buy the things I had lay in bed the whole night regretting that I missed out on! I bought 5 vintage cameras, an orange typewriter, printing press shelves, clocks, rayban sunglasses, and a wind up pink musical poodle!! A MASSIVE HAUL!! I have started listing a few things on my etsy shop https://www.etsy.com/au/shop/lavibohemme I will get to the cameras shortly, just packaging, giftwrapping, bubble wrapping, to head to the post office, when I realised I would miss it by 12 I sat down to blog with a cup of coffee!!
Nursing a sore head from a great BIG night last night with a lot of visitors, a big bonfire, camp overn dinner, music, guitars, drums, singing, laughing and kids, while everyones kids spent the day riding around our property on motorcycles. Our kids are in Queensland for two weeks with their father and family up there, so anyone with kids comes to visit us and stay till late so HOPING Fingers crossed today is a relaxing recovery day with some long anticipated alone time hahaha!!! The worst part about being a "Farmer" Is people interpret that as "Unemployed therefore ready to party till all hours of the morning from about lunch time" Yet all the other "Farmers - or Blockies" Are here early to eat some cake and have coffee! Never Peace and quiet!! We finished "Pulling out" The vines which is pulling off the dead vines from the wire which were rolled on last year to bear the grapes, (I didn't know that 3 years ago) Now we are going to attach a 3rd wire onto the posts and then wrap on the vines for next years grapes to grow!! This is a BIG job! Honestly I don't even know where to buy the wire and how to put wire on a these posts????? But As always, I will learn quick and do what Im told!
I will post some photos of my vintage haul shortly, And will keep listing on my etsy shop!!
