With the new 4WD the plan was to get out and use it more-and so far we’re sticking to that. On Sunday morning we went for a drive out past Gatton to Glen Rock National Park. It was a pretty area-though there wasn't really any walks or anything. The information centre was a lovely timber shack-I mostly admired the building and couldn’t really tell you what the information posters were about. There were several mother cows with their babies gathered on the road-some of the calves were very cheeky and attempted to head butt the car as we went past. Another little calf chased after us looking hopeful-I think the owner must drive in and feed them so they expected us to stop and give them food. We also went to look at some Indigenous rock carvings Shane had read about. It was a pretty drive in on a winding road between hills, but it kinda ended at nothing. The path to the rock carvings was very overgrown, and it was difficult to tell what the carving was meant to be of. The sandstone it was carved on was very pretty though. In just a week our melons have grown-the plants have spread out more and the fruits have been forming. One is a weird furry fruit-we're not sure what type it is-a honeydew maybe? I think the other two are rockmelon and watermelon. Our tropical apples have been ready for picking too. For such a small plant it's produced good size fruit.
