The end is near...

We were lucky here in our state to score a long weekend....

So today we had something that needed to be achieved before it couldn't be done ....

You see...my husband has worked at the same place of employment for 20 years...and in a couple of months he will be made redundant...

Big changes in store for him...we just aren't sure what they are yet.

Anyways something we have wanted to do is take the kids on site and show them around where dad has been heading off to all these years.
It is an industrial site ( power station) and so it has been a restricted entry site to them until today.... 
I enjoyed my little tour as well....over 14 years ago I was part of a small team that lead educational tours around  the station.....we took school groups, uni students and interested groups of the public through...that was until 9/11 happened in which security became too tight.










I know one of the things he will miss the most is the beautiful view...shame industry sits on this beautiful part of the coast...

Both the kids loved the tour...both commented on how like a ghost town it felt as much of the workforce has finished up and the station has already begun being mothballed. They now understand how hard it is to get up and head to work each day.

Onwards and upwards onto new adventures...where ever they may take us!
