BEERBURRUM - POPULATION: 600

WED 12.07 - SUN 16.07.2017: Almost 12 months to the day we are making a return visit to Susan and Kevin Grealy's Old Bakehouse at Beerburrum. The name is derived from that of a nearby mountain, Mount Beerburrum. In the language of the Indigenous Kabi nation, bir means green parrot and burru mountain. Susan and Kevin's backyard is lovely, but requires a little pruning and weeding. SO, this trip we threw in our gardening tools and spent some time fossicking around in the dirt. Of course it would have made sense to take a 'before' and 'after' photo of the work completed, but one only thought to take a photo after the event! Resurrected many of Kevin's pottery pieces and placed them throughout the garden.
"YOU ARE MEANT TO BE IN THE PHOTO, NOT TAKING IT!"
Being an annual return trip it was imperative that we have our catch up dinner with the ladies from Special Olympics. Again, much laughter, too much food and a great time. For whatever reason, it becomes important to recreate the photo taken 12 months earlier - how many attempts does it take, too many!

 
L TO R: CAROLE, SYBIL, ANNA-LOUISE, DEBIE, SUSIE & SUSAN
