The big Yeperenye sculpture at the Araluen Centre. Yeperenye was the most important caterpillar in the Aboriginal Dreaming story of creation. The caterpillar people made the McDonnell range and other land features. Geologist say "there was a sudden upheaval." Sounds like 2 versions of the same story to me.
Mt. Gillen of the McDonnell range. The view out our front window I just love - and photograph often! With little vegetation, it changes color all day as the sun hits the rocks and soil different ways. I loved the morning it woke up orange.
Our friends took us to Simpson's Gap First trip "out bush" and we forgot hats and sunscreen. Doh! That's Thomas in the borrowed red hat. We're spotting rock wallabies.
More of Simpson's Gorge/Gap. Given time, a little bit of water can do a lot. The actual spring was so tiny that made this gap in the rock.
Hey, I'll be glad to look at any and all photos you care to post (: Mt. Gillen is absolutely beautiful. Kind of like the marshes here that change by the minute depending on high/low tide and the way the light hits. And keep the Dream Time stories coming . . . Often think about you, mi amiga. Much love . . . Catherine (annd much love to Tomis and Tom).
