Rainy weekend.  Today we took a Sunday afternoon drive to explore more countryside.  Missed a turn and spent too long on a narrow windy gravel road with one lane bridges.   pics (no bridges) at https://picasaweb.google.com/115133267095590644390/TheCountryRoad?authuser=0&feat=directlink
Saturday evening, we had a very nice dinner with a couple from Austin.  Jim is a radiologist.  I met Jan at the gym.  They are half way through their year here (different locums agency).  We compared experiences.  Rich and Jim shared hospital frustrations.  They have a more comfortable house.  I'll be home alone for a couple days, as Rich will be working in Gisborne Tuesday and Wednesday.
