The BT/s


On the afternoon before we left to return to freezing Melbourne, we enjoyed some time with Barb's brother Peter and Susan and family. And they have new family members, Shallotte and her mum. Shallotte loves Melody and Rachael and is beginning to let her personality come out. It is so nice to see that sort of thing happen. There are good stories in the wings that will come forth from Shallotte and her young mum because of the love, care and nurture of the BT/s. This is what church families should be doing more of.
Their place has a 66,000 litre rainwater tank (mostly submerged), large vegetable gardens, and numerous chooks. Peter took us on a tour. When he finishes fitting a filtration system for their house usage, they will be totally self-sufficient in their water needs. That is pretty amazing for a house in the central suburbs of Brisbane.

Thanks for posting all those photos Dad - ace to get a sense of your trip/weekend. Lovely to see what the BTs look like in the flesh these days! Love Bec
