We had grand plans for the day. We were going to build a structure around the outside shower, and this involved alot of bush clearing, wire construction, cement mixing etc but we woke up this morning absolutely bust. I had no energy so returned to the bed after lunch and slept and read and slept and the fan blew its cool breeze over me and the frogs belched out to their friends and the afternoon passed as if in a dream. We wait for rain, we all wait for the rain, the relief, the life and the wet will be a welcome feeling. I walked around the property this morning with pen and paper, drawing a road map so I could find my bearings. Just paths in the bush, cant see where you are can be disorientating, especailly as the likely hood of meeting a snake, being eaten alive from march flies or perishing from thirst are all real possibilities..i have a map now and it all makes sense. The camel Woogai is the key. Lovely night, full moon and it fills the sky and sits pregnant and luminous over the sea. Every where is visual drama.
