After the big OS trip - working Caulfield, skiing trips and up to Noosa and back via Outback in new VW sedan - visited stud sheep station near Orange. Got a guitar. Got into folk music & coffee shops.
Married 1966 and went to USA. Lived Charlotte NC - worked in small rehab hospital for paras and quads 3yrs ,.. Divorced after 1 year. Good jobs - no good pics. Beach and Smokey mountain holidays - lighthouse at Cape Hatteras, very old black and white spiral paint. Moved to Raleigh NC to OP orthopedic clinic, then Nashville c1969-71, Baptist General Hospital. Then Baltimore 1973. On the professional rat race with ever more interesting and rewarding career path public speaking and part time teaching and preparing to write book... air pollution and snow bad for my health... Trip to Rio de de Janeiro for a week.
In 1975 Nov - back to Melbourne for good. Heart stuffed. No exciting jobs here but good climate and food and less crime - no ice and snow. Small population. Good to be back with family and old friends. Melbourne a good place live. Made a big trip round the East coast from Melbourne to Bribie Island Queensland.
Many years later- playing recorders with a few groups and acting the clown playing them at the Myer Music bowl and even made the evening TV news!
