For a few months now and until the end of the year I have been transferred to the Reader Services area of the library and I am really loving it. I enjoy the contact with people in the reading rooms and the interaction with the collection which continually amazes me. Working in the special collections reading room I have seen 500 year old books and handled them (with gloves), amazing artworks such as Norman Lindsey pieces, original texts produced by Labillardière when at Recherche Bay in 1792, (If I had known about that one earlier I could have got a better mark on my uni essay!) and everything else you could think of!
Rock Climbing
The girls have been doing rock climbing for about two months now. This is a fantastic sport! Not only is it the cheapest children's sport, it has great fitness as well. Mia has taken to this like a duck to water and has really done well. Erin is a little timid but is pushing her comfort envelope and climbing a little higher every week.
We recently attended a kids comp day and I had the best time just watching. They make it look really easy though I have yet to get the harness on and give it a go myself (soon!).
And this is me on a recent uni field trip to the Latham axe grinding grooves, part of the local Canberra Archaeology scene.
