Site Visit Adventures

It's always interesting to undertake site inspections, particularly in rural areas. This week my site visit was to a gravel road, with piped culverts and a one lane bridge. It was hot and remote. The long grass was rustling, a wallaby was bounding in the adjacent property, a 2m long, fat, black snake was slithering from the roadside into the bushes and when I went to inspect the one lane bridge, something splashed in the water... something big!!! I was on edge, turning at every sound - when I finally completed all the inspections, the wallaby returned, bounding in front of me, shear millimetres from the car!

That night my children loved hearing the story about my day at work!!
