A jog around Reef Hills on a glorious autumn morning. Knee really sore to begin with but loosened up after a couple of k. Lots of march flies and mosquitoes around but I either ran too fast or was not tasty enough as I avoided being bitten.

C • next week? 2

A lovely big swim in the Benalla pool with a good water-supported stretch afterwards. Despite being very wet underfoot, it is a beautiful day in the north east and everything looks so clean and bright. This will be one of first autumns for a while where there wont be a lot of smoke around - at least in the north and east of the state - as it is just so wet. I had to go to Traralgon yesterday and it was so green that you could have thought it was winter.

Street O at Blackburn lake last night. Because of sore knee I just walked and enjoyed it. Blackburn really is one of the nicest places to walk around so I am glad I made the decision to move there. My house was in the middle of the map.

I managed to activate my wi fi on my phone - but my computer is too old to connect - I need a new one of these too. I haven't yet mastered filling in AP and FB from the phone though - getting half way through and then losing the entry.

Curiously the people I don't know and who I befriended accidentally via the phone were quite disappointed when I sent an apology and suggested I defriend them!

Knee very very sore so opted for a walk around Blackburn. Geoff was running an adventure series event at Blackburn Lake so I walked there and he kindly gave me a map. To my surprise he had set a reasonably technical course that was midway between a street-O course and a bush course - a good introduction to bush orienteering for newcomers. He had mapped and then used the vegetation boundaries - which was great!

B******y phone. I was trying to get rid of FB's friend suggestions but, with the touch screen, found that I've now invited a whole pile of people I don't know to be friends! Grrrrr

Did lots of domestic activities today including getting a new phone. Holey moley - what a technical challenge. I tried to install AP and FB so I could update them by phone. However, I am so clumsy that it would take me longer to write a blog about an event than it would to run the course!

I am hoping for a technically superior person to assist me with making the phone work as a modem. Hint Hint.
