Sailing: the fine art of getting wet and becoming ill while slowly going nowhere at great expense.

Sculpture in the Park



Bob finally allowed himself a bit of R&R from the ongoing house renovations.  We had a few relaxing and enjoyable hours at the Sculpture in the Park exhibit at Urunga.  What a wonderful showcase of fantastic local talent!  Around 60 pieces were exhibited on the beautiful banks of the mouth of the Kalang River.  Jazz bands played while people picnicked under the shade of giant fig trees.  

The theme for the exhibit was to use recycled materials and the artists were superb in creating beauty from junk.  The pieces ranged from whimsical Mrs Roots, fine glass and wood, molded steel, political statements to elegant simplicity.  One of the things that make this tree/sea changer area so special is the absolute surfeit of remarkably talented people who live here.
