HUEman Nature

...I love a colour burst country, a land of rainbow rains... I'm just paraprosing a very famous Australian poem by Dorothea Mackellar

These are photos I took over the long weekend...we went back to nature to celebrate Earth Day. No. Not really. But it coincided so I didn't feel so bad about my carbon footprint on Earth Day.
...having said that... I try to make every day earth day... you know?
Isn't Mother Nature wonderful? Look at her vibrant colours, her hueman being...

My youngest and I skipping to the middle of this fabulous bridge. And my beyond fabulous gumboots! It is getting cold here now. And we went camping, tramping and spelunking. Click on all these pics to see large view.
