Well I made it south of Sydney to the little town of Tomerong where I am WWOOFing with a woman named Evelyn. I'll post about that in a day or two, but first.... after a morning bustling around the yard, today Evelyn dropped me off at a beach near Vincentia which is on the coast of Jervis Bay. While the temperatures have been, I am told, unseasonably cool, it was still enjoyable to get out to the beach and do some beach combing.

| A pretty little shell, super purple and shiny on the inside. So I took a pic. Then I found another. And another. Then some more. I left with five of the prettiest. I'll probably tote them around for a bit then get frustrated with the packing/unpacking of my backpack. But I hope I keep them. |

| Smooth sailing! |
Up next on the agenda? Tomorrow night the little township of Tomerong (a few hundred households) has its monthly (or quarterly, I don't remember) Community Night. There's an open mic, it's a potluck and, this time, they're bringing in a karaoke machine. I'm looking forward to it. And for some reason, I keep thinking of Northern Exposure.

i love it!! keep the shells - stuff them in a pocket or something so you forget they are there. when i went to the english coast there were only silly things in the gift shops and my shells were the only souvenirs besides pix that i brought back. lovely!
Just got your postcard, love it! thanks!! ;)
Northern Exposure...sounds completely appropriate! Hope you enjoy your stay there, love the way you're immersing yourself in the local scene.
