The 2000s

The short story of my life starts now, and steps backwards. (It may seem that nothing has happened lately. The reverse is true.)

2009

Still a work in progress.

2008

I began another stint on the Queensland Heritage Council.

2007

More lighthouses...

2006

I started a major project, to survey the condition of 58 Australian lighthouses.

2005

The Illustrated Burra Charter picked up a bunch of awards.

2004

A sabbatical in New Zealand, and the Illustrated Burra Charter was finally published.

2003

There were some heavy binges of work on the revised edition of the Illustrated Burra Charter, with Meredith Walker.

2002

I did a variety of work around Brisbane, with a spell out west.

2001

I started to get healthy and busy again. Then I tumbled off a scaffold and broke a collar bone.

2000

I avoided the y2k bug, but had chronic fatigue after the Ross River Virus. I cut back on consulting jobs, but kept up my work on the Queensland Heritage Council.
