Today we say goodbye to Kew, our third home together. We’ve loved being part of the Kew-mmunity. I enjoyed being part of Threads of Kindness (a local volunteer group) and a book club at the local library. We’ll miss the flying foxes, wonderful local businesses, street art, and more!

One of my reading goals this year is to read more of my owned library… Kobo’s activity tracker is a good reminder of why I set that goal.😅 (But on the plus side, this also shows that I use local libraries a ton!)

Some days you visit an island just to see Quokkas and it’s worth it because you see over 20 and they’re all adorable.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

Phillip Island in Victoria, Australia never fails to amaze me with its beauty. It’s also home to amazing Australian animals such as the wallaby, grey goose, echidna, and (perhaps most famously) the little penguins.

The animals in Australia are just so wonderful! Saw a Joey and his mama, a sporadic emu, and cubed wombat poo. Also enjoyed some hikes, gorgeous views, sand dunes, and a beautiful beach. 🦘
