First, I still have no idea how to put pictures on this blog so I am depending on my wonderful teammates that are much more technologically savvy than I to do so.
But I will echo Scott's comments. Busselton is a great place to be. It is not bad when you can walk right out the door and go for a bike ride, swim, or a run along the Geographe Bay. These types of physical activities were necessary because the people of Busselton make sure that you are never without food or drink.
My vocational time was very well spent yesterday with the Deputy Leader of the Opposition in the Upper House of Parliament - Troy Buswell. He is very much in line with Governor Sanford back home and actually pointed him to our website for some possible ideas and policies to advocate for in WA.
From a personal standpoint I have been touched by the true openness of the Rotarians in this area. I want to say thanks to my host family - Lyn and Lawrie Walter - for making me feel at home and part of the family. I enjoyed teaching - or trying to teach - you and the rest of the extended family the state dance (The Shag). And no for all of you dirty minded non-South Carolinians, the Shag is a dance and not what you think it is.
Hello to all back home and thanks again Busselton.

Grant, posting photos is easy, you just ask Shannon. Glad to see your new friends appreciate the "Shag", it's the only dance where us poor guys get to do most of the fun parts.

Everyone in the USA MUST know about the Shag by now - it was even made "famous" by the movie -"The Shag". Of course, I cut my baby teeth doing the Shag - back in the Dark Ages! Yes, it HAS been around that long! :-)

Grant, the House will be in until midnight and we have a tax cut in the budget.
We all miss you at the State House.
Now get back here and get back to work!
Scott
