WW50.Luke_Sidney Australia

Luke from Sidney Australia arrived on July 29th and stayed to the following Friday August 7th. On Lukes first day he was initiated into the endless rock raking. Unfortunately, that evening he wasn't feeling well and spent the better part of that night at the hospital being rehydrated(we suspect that he had sunstroke which resulted in dehydration). It took him a couple of days to recover, and so he missed out on the huckleberry picking and Thompson Falls, I don't think he minded missing the berry picking. Luke also particpated in the annual burr round up (chopping down of the infamous bi-annual burr bush). He gave a go at raspberry picking but there were too many wasps buzzing him, so instead Loren and Luke picked and shucked peas .
Luke canoed at Susan Lake with Anne (WW 49), where they saw a moose calf. Luke left on route to Banff and then onto Toronto. He has a work visa and is hoping to work while he stays in Canada. Luke didn't sign the wwoofing book, nor did we get a picture of working, so I found this photo on his blog. You can check out Lukes travels at the link http://www.aussie-in-canada.com/.

Hi Denise and Loren,

How is the farm without any WOOFers? I'm currently in Toronto meeting more and more people. Still having lots of fun traveling around. I'm going to give this WOOFing business another go this sunday even after abit of bad luck.

Wish you all the best in future and you can update your book with this:
"
Make sure that any new woofers give Teddy and Roxy sufficient amounts of attention per day. Also Hank is an angry angry pig so always keep an eye out for him.

To anyone who reads this make sure you also sleep at the front of the bus as it's more fun.

Thanks Denise and Loren for allowing me to share a bit of your lives with me. This has opened my eyes to how other people make the most of their live. Thanks again

- Luke
