This week I collected these small bits of driftwood off the beach. I’m still pinching myself that we live about 2 minutes walk from a decent beach. How lucky are we!!

This weekend we did some stuff. It might not sound very profound, but we are homebodies at heart and it is easy for us to amuse ourselves at home rather than exploring this beautiful area like we should.

We visited the Yirrkala Arts Centre on Saturday morning. I was concerned that we might need a special permit to visit the township, but I rang the centre and they assured me that it was ok as long as we didn’t drive around the town. So off we went.

Though they took off when they saw us. I was a bit worried as they have been known to kill people. (Chris took the photo)

Once we had settled down with a couple of fishing rods we noticed some stuff happening in the distance and I thought it was a shark!! There was a fin poking out of the water… very exciting. We watched for a minute before we realised that it was acutally a small pod of dolphins YAY!

They were actually driving fish towards us and at one stage they seemed to be less than 20m from the shore. So close I could hear their ‘bite’ as they tried to catch fish!

Chris got some great photos, but I’ll let him post them on our other blog Gone to Gove

I’m thinking that I will use the top of the drawers as a storage area
for my sewing machine and clear a drawer for use as a place to hold
projects that I need to vamoose quickly (nothing stifles a creative
urge than a big old UFO hogging up my space!!

Sounds like a plan doesn’t it?

And
what will I work on with all this free desk space? I’m thinking I need
to do some drawing and a little bit of painting. That always calms the
nerves. 🙂
