We took Bluey for a morning walk around ANZAC Park, picking up takeaway coffees from the nearby Humble Cafe. This cafe is located several blocks from the busy retail area and has a distinctly local clientele. Several well-maintained Victorian and Federation homes enjoy views across the park, and others are located on surrounding streets. It is a pity I took these photos on garbage collection day!
Back at our caravan park, Anita put on a large load of washing in the camp laundry. We relaxed with our friends before doing some errands in town. I bought a remote wifi thermometer for the van, which took some patience on my part to set up. It sends reports of the temperature and humidity to my phone and updates every 2 seconds so we can monitor the temperature when we have left the critters in the van. The sensor is very small, about 50 mm square.
There had been rain overnight, and in the morning, threatening clouds hovered on the horizon. This was the view from our caravan park at 10 am.
As we drove back to North Tamworth, the skies became more threatening. We were inside the van when there was a very loud thunder clap. I rushed outside to fold up chairs that might blow away, but fortunately, we only had a brief storm with heavy rain.
In the afternoon we visited our friends in the motorhome with Bluey quivering with anticipation. Leo was playing with his lead. Bluey’s separation anxiety manifests itself as manic behaviour and muzzling when we return, until we can settle him on the bed.
