Tree change to Sea change … My new job and another chapter begins …

22/8/2015

After a lengthy recruitment phase, I recently accepted the offer of a new job.  The role as CEO at Otway Health, based in Apollo Bay on the Great Ocean Road, is a fairly spectacular location to consider for one’s next career move.

So after a sad farewell to a great team of work colleagues at MSA, I packed the car ready to head “down the road”. Again,  another tune came to  mind as I took off and I could not get the Van Morrison song “Down the road” out of my head.

Car packed and ready to go ...

Obviously there has been a lot of conversation between Tezza and I about this decision and what that means for us.  Lots of choices need to be made, but right now we are going back to a similar living, working, commuting style of living that we had when I was based in Canberra.  I will have a place in Apollo Bay and come home to PCH when I can.  Tezza will keep things ticking over at PCH and come to Apollo Bay when he can.

My temporary accommodation is very nice, thank you very much!  This is what front yard I look out over as I stand in the living room …

A couple of “soul food things I want to share are;

The afternoon I arrived home from work and a whale was playing in the front yard..

Now that wee black mark in the middle is a whale fin ...

And the morning driving to the hospital and this rainbow led the way…

So I won’t say too much more for now,  except to say that Apollo Bay is very quirky – that seriously appeals to that side of my personality and to give you a sense of it – imagine “Star Hollows” in the Gilmore Girls meets “Pearl Bay" from Sea Change … and you now have an inkling to my very own fantasy of  “Pearl Hollows”.

Thanks for dropping by the blog Margaret. Yes it was a magnificent rainbow ... as often happens, the photo does not do justice to the real colours. Deb
