This is my husband Stephen. We have been married now for 33 years, and for the past 25 years he has been going away fishing from our home town. He use to fish out of the Barwon Heads harbour and come in and out every day. He never stayed away. Then the fishing changed and a bigger boat was in order and a change of place to fish. Now for this to work he had to go away fishing to Apollo Bay, Wilsons Prom & King Island. The days seemed to become weeks and then months. So much always seemed to happen whilst he was away fishing. He once went with our son Jarrod over to Flinders Island fishing for 17 weeks (way too long) and also I will never forget the early morning phone call I received from him to ask how my mother was. Only for me to tell him that she had just died earlier that morning. All I wanted was to just hug him. Well to his credit he was on the first plane home and in those days the plane from King Island only went to Moorabin. So then it was a taxi to the train station and then another taxi from the Geelong Station to home. (It literally was, "Planes, Trains & Automobiles")He has had a little time off here and there, but nothing really to talk about, but you know still to this day I really hate him going away. It is not just that I am over fshing, but I really miss him being around. We have really just started to be able to do things by ourselves as our family is growing up. I love his company, and I love him with all my heart. He is a very passionate, caring person, and will do anything or anyone without question. I only wish we could have more time together. Who would think after all these years I would be so use to it by now, but I can guarantee you, I am NOT. I Love you Steve x x
