The first house we ever owned was at Port Pirie, South Australia. We bought it for $45,000 in 1993. We sold it to my parents when we moved to Eden.
We bought a house again when we moved to Porepunkah, Victoria. It was a small three-bedroom hardiplank home on a delightful block in Seamer Street, and cost $81,000. A few years later we moved two doors up the road to a much bigger house, which cost $184,000.
The picture shows the last heavy snowfall at Porepunkah. I think it was in 2000. I remember it was a Sunday in May. We don’t have many other pictures of the little house, and I regret not taking more photos around Porepunkah on the day of that snowfall.
