When Graeme had his accident both himself and Kath were staying at the batch at Maori Gardens and had just restocked for a longer stay. However things turned belly up with Graeme having the fall and having to be taken out by helicopter. The bach and all Graeme and Kaths belongings, food, kyak, tools and his ute (which was left in the Sandy Bay area)
all needed to be brought out by foot and back over to home. Along with Ang and Martin,Yasmine,Rory myself and Kath we set off from Sandy Bay walking the track to the bach. Graeme and Kath's friend Dean had kindly offered to get Graeme's kyak back around to Sandy Bay where it was put on the ute and Martin along with Rory drove the vehicle home to Skylark Lane. It was a really memorable time at the Bay I love that place and feel very at home there still to this day. Walking out with backpacks,bags and goodness knows what else was a mission up the hilly track feeling like a goat - how did we scale those hills as kids!!!!! oh I know we were YOUNG. Dean also loaded the dingy and kyak with as much as he could which was wonderful. A good deed done - just a shame it had to be under the cloud with Graeme lying in hospital.
