For those who've been out of the loop (and admittedly we've not been to good at communicating this ourselves) Kristina and I have bought 60 acres in Tassie along the Huon River :)

Consider it an early "retirement plan", that's probably the best description I can give you. It's a great property with many awesome features (such as four permanent springs). We've a range of plans for this place which I'll detail here as we go along and actually bring them to fruition. In the mean time, here a few happy snaps :)
