Risdon Prison


Yes that is Risdon Prison in the background, and from memory on this day the boys were a little disappointed as there were no prisoners in the yard!!!!!

Well the holidays are definately over and life has returned to being busy. Before the end of the holidays we managed to get to a couple of parks. One being Risdom Brook Dam. Now the reason the boys chose this park is because they have an obsession with Risdon Prison at the moment. The love to drive past it, and even more so they love to go up to Risdom Brook Dam and look into the prison yards and check to see if there are any prisoners in the yards. Ethan also wanted to get his photo taken with the prison in the backgroung so that he could take it to school for "show and tell"!!!

Also during the holidays Grandad Docking came to finish of the cubby house he started at christmas time so now the roof is leak free, and no longer any sharp edges.

Surely that young-looking gentleman couldn't be a grandfather. The cubby does look professionally built. Perhaps he could come to my house and fix my loose roof.
Hope you paid him well.

That totally cracks me up about the prison obsession! It's just so funny!

But the cubby looks great!!!
