mary from sydney invited me to her family farm over ANZAC weekend (a day commemorating veterans in oz and new z) in gloucester, oz. here i am in a park above the town.

in early may, i took off from sydney for melbourne in a rental car. i stopped in the snowy mountains and took a hike up the mountains of thredbo. this picnic table provides a nice spot for lunch.

|
|
some cool trees on this section of the trail, known as dead horse gap. if you look closely at the trail you can see the dead horse crap.
|
|
|
approaching the bottom. thredbo is a very serene, quiet place where i was able to do a lot of writing.

kozie, as the locals call it. if a word has more than two syllables, australians shorten it to one and add "-ie." sunglasses are sunnies. mosquitoes are mozzies. a sick-day from work is called a sickie. so, this isn't mt. kosciusko, it's kozie.
