 Following on from my last post, "It's wet!", we have been finding new paths to access our favourite places. Yesterday we were able to make our way to the big waterhole, Doro's Hole, on the Broadwater.  To cross Cannon Creek, we were able to make our way across the Five Cascades.  Down at Doro's Hole, there is a sad story to tell. The big gum, central to our photos of the reflections on the waterhole, has come down. Banjo Patterson, in his poem "In Defence of the Bush", said: "But the bush has moods and changes, as the seasons rise and fall..." Well, sometimes the changes are not so subtle! This has been an inspiring tree. It has been there forever. As you get around the property it is good to notice some of the trees.  It is also good to notice some of the rocks!  So, in the last two days we have managed to visit the Dragon's Backbone, Doro's hole on the Broadwater and cross Cannon Creek Gorge. Making new tracks means finding new things. Rocks, Trees, Flowers, Birds. It is good for the Soul. A visit to Earth & Soul is not complete without a walk around.
Bring your gumboots. You need to be waterproof with good tread. Let Mark & Donna show you around. Look forward to seeing you!

Now is the time to visit the Cannon Creek Gorge.  Cannon Creek flowing down into the gorge. Access on the usual tracks is limited. This is the Cannon Creek crossing below our main home.  The Cannon Creek crossing below the Main Home. We're not driving too far. A good pair of water-tight gumboots with non-slip tread are recommended. We can show you how to make your way around the property.  Looking across from Lounge Chair Rock to the Top of the Gorge. It's pretty exciting.    You never know what wildflowers you might discover! These are what we found today on our walk. We also found a teddy bear trapped in a tree.  Take care out there!
