I sit here wondering how I will find the time to write an update for this blog on a regular basis. How will I crawl out from under the ever growing pile of paper that covers my desk? Where will the inspiration come from to write something… anything?

And then I get an update from Andrew Hughes…

I sit here wondering how I will find the time to write an update for this blog on a regular basis. How will I crawl out from under the ever growing pile of paper that covers my desk? Where will the inspiration come from to write something… anything?

And then I get an update from Andrew Hughes…

The Society is a sponsor on Andrew’s current adventure “8 in 8 in 8”. Many of you will know Andrew from articles in the journal. The concept for the expedition is to climb Australia’s eight highest peaks in the eight states and territories in eight months. Sounds easy – we sure we don’t have the highest mountains in the world! So just for fun Andrew is cycling, kayaking or walking the massive distances between the peaks.

What I really love about the expedition is that Andrew has a great blog that he updates as he goes. His weekly updates are followed by school kids and kids at heart from all over Australia (and probably the world). He gives an insight into this wide brown land that most of us will never experience (unless of course you choose to ride across it over the course of 8 months.)

You can follow Andrew’s journey here.
