Walk

I walked up Gray St and across the Princes Highway to the new housing development on Woodland Avenue. Completed about a decade ago but still unconvincing. Small blocks, big houses, lots of brick and half grown gardens. Turned right at Red Ash Drive and then left at Gahan’s Lane, heading up steeply in the direction of the escarpment – the houses becoming older the higher I climbed. Then an overgrown fire trail, with lantana closing in on both sides, to another fire trail leading up to Rixon’s Pass. Followed the track from the top along in the direction of Broker’s Nose, but the afternoon was growing late so I stopped at a powerline clearing with a view over the coast. Large swell rolling into Bellambi beach. That’s about all I noticed before I turned around, worried that it might be dark on the descent, but no problems. Only became dark when I got back and was watering the new plants.
