autumnal park

Ferdy jumping out of the lake

When 'the council' (presumably) beat down all the bracken that was covering the Sporting Club's land they piled up quite a bit of detritus in a heap on the side of the hill. Bits of car, vegetation, rocks. Note the greek chorus in the dead branches. 

This (empty) keg is a recent addition. Ferdy was very apprehensive of it. Note his body language. 

To quote Jimmy Webb/Richard Harris, someone left an umbrella stuck in the ground.

You can see the burnt patch on the Gladstone Park side is slowly, slowly becoming less of a burnt patch.

This is the lake bed we were jumping around on only a week or so ago. The water's still very shallow, but it is water (not a tempting mirage).

Ferdy and the bike track, which was created by a meteorite in 1972.
