And if the recent Dragons win over the eastern suburbs Roosters wasn’t proof enough, take a look at this snapshot of family fun that I captured down at George’s River on the weekend. Now I’ve seen this done with dogs to really tire them out, but to see the same technique used on kids made my heart sing. We had a bit of a cold snap in Sydney on the weekend, and most people who had dipped a toe in the week before would have thought twice this weekend. But down on the beach not far from the skiff club was a father with a cricket bat and a tennis ball playing a game of fetch in the river with his two young sons neither of whom were wearing a wetsuit, and were having so much fun they were completely oblivious to the wind chill factor.
Go Fetch
Those of you reading this in cooler climes are probably thinking “big deal” but temperatures are all relative and we get some pretty chilly southern ocean currents off the South East Coast of Australia.
Anyway, it was nice to see heaps of families out with their kids on a blustery cold day doing busy things and generally soaking up the outdoors…bring on spring.
