Kerry scattering my brother Ray's Ashes!

An eerie resting place, to be transformed on a sunny day, to the most magic of places...

Well Kerry and I took an important trip today, just down the road to Tumbulgum, the quaintest little town ever,we shared a laugh saying if we bought a house here it would probably flood for the first time in 60 years..'the way our luck has been running lately. Tumbulgum has art galleries, cafes, and a fantastic tavern... all too country..lol. It's right near the border, QLD and NSW. You see today was a very important day! It was a gloomy day weather wise, and very late in the afternoon, but I think the angels were waiting for us to deliver our special cargo..I really needed to do the trip today, "take care of business" and also needed to document it with some shots.I coloured all the shots vintage and dark to match the sombre mood of the moment. It seemed only right.

We actually went to deliver my brother Ray to the river so he could go fishing, well, that's a little silly, but true. You see he was in a box....we took Ray's ashes down to scatter them in the river as he requested... funnily he said.. he wanted no fuss, just wanted to go fishing....that's the kind of guy he was...loved the simple things, a good yarn and a nice cold beer! Loved summer, darrell lea nougat eggs, custard, prawns and lollies...
It all went well, I muttered some bits and pieces to Ray, (talked to him just like he was there), so did Kerry and that made it all OK!

Then we headed over to the local cafe and had a coffee. It was a little difficult today, but it gave us both closure.. now Ray can rest up there with Mum and Dad and the Angels! Bless! The whole "point and shoot" thing gave me a distraction, so that was great!
