SPRING HAS ALREADY SPRUNG IN NANNUP


Its been nearly 3 months since we've had a little adventure. Being an outdoor girl it was time to get rid of that cabin fever and set out to the great outdoors. So we packed the cooler bag, thermos, picnic basket and rug in hubby's car, because it runs on gas and is slightly cheaper to run and went on a scenic drive to the Nannup Flower & Garden Festival.

We hadn't even left our street and there was already some excitement for the day - the 2 year old across the road had been found by a lovely lady by the name of Laura Finlayson and the police were there. He had decided to go for a wonder towards the ocean, the feral tenants across the road obviously hadn't noticed him missing yet. Laura (a mother herself) was most distraught - we told them we were pretty sure he lives across the road. Hope fully he got home safely, its so lucky he wasn't run over.

Visitors to Nannup today enjoyed watching the film Drift starring Sam Worthington being filmed while walking down the main street today - the seventies surf film is due to be released in 2012.
