Wilderness tree planting day: 200 trees planted! Great start to new plantation to provide habitat and to help supply fodder leaves to carers for animals in care and rehabilitation. A great family day
How is your Saturday going? Just spent the most wonderful morning planting a forest for koalas. Fantastic event, with lots of local families turning out to help plant the 200 trees we had. Such a fantastic morning and it all went so quickly. The local council provided a beautiful piece of bushland, even pre-dug the holes! #MovementForLife #WildernessSocietyToowoomba #koalaTrees #trees #DDEC #Environment #ecofriendly

First day of the coolest readathon 5 in 50 organised by #BrothersnBooks for #Legacy. I just finished Lucy Jones Losing Eden Why our minds need the wild, a great overview of the evidence for why we need engagement with the natural world for our physical and mental health but also why the planet needs us to be engaged with nature. Now ready to start my first#5in50ReadingChallenge book; What Alice Forgot by Liane Moriarty, a bit of a different read for me but so far enjoying Alice's story: concussion and completely losing ten years of memories including having kids and now divorcing the love of her life, perhaps a bit more chic lit than my usual read but enjoying the ride. Currently hidding in the pod with my book buddy. I really need some camping/tree time. #BrothersnBooks
Picked 5 books from my to read pile ready to start #5in50challenge #BrothersnBooks reading challenge fundraiser for #Legacy.

We set up a #USQLibrary team for the readathon the USQ LIBRARY READING PHOENIX find us @brothersnbooksreadathon.gofundraise.com.au/page/USQlibraryteadingphoenixteam
Happy #InternationalDogDay had to post a pic of our wild girls who when it comes to international their breed heritage covers at least three continents and several countries. Ada is a mix of German shepherd, am staff and ridgeback, Cassie we recently discovered is primarily catahoula. No better dog than a rescue and we put lots of work into training our wild girls who need a huge amount of exercise to keep them happy and manageable but the reward is more than worth all the effort. #RescueDogsofInstagram #RescueDogs #Dogs
