After months of planning and preparation we finally leave Sylvania, a leafy suburb in Sydney’s south. Our first port of call is to Wyee via the Pacific Highway. Wyee is the home of my brother Darren and his family.
Wyee is a quiet rural township located on the fringe of the bustling Central Coast of NSW. Darren, his wife Jodie, their children Jake, Manie, Abbie and my mum live on a small acreage and enjoy the spoils of a small friendly neighbourhood and quiet surrounds.
The boys are constantly asking; “when are we going to the farm again?”. They adore their cousins and love rumbles with uncle Darren. Most of all they love tucking into Grandmas cooking.
Manie is Darren and Jodie’s eldest daughter, she loves her horse Bundy and is quite an accomplished rider. She trains in the dressage arena frequently and it is really great to see how she cares for her friend. Even on the coldest mornings, she will wander to the stable and feed, clean etc.
Recently I have spent some time on the property doing small projects and have got to know Bundy. This horse really is “personality plus”. At given times he will
actually smile. His not so popular trait is eating cardboard. Anything left around is demolished.
All in all he is beautiful and the boys are quite comfortable around him.
