southcape
just in a cybercafe in hobart, have been down via huonville and the
coast (where the osyters are so thick i would have a meal by bashing
the shells on the rocks.............
unbelievably autistic the population going down.............
south cape is a two or three hour walk from cockle bay the beginning
of a trail going for days along the coast up through some very rough
rainforest country.... have you ever seen tents with 44 gallon drum
barbacue type fireplaces for warmth in the middle of summer?
anyway had a brillant day going over, the previous day was cloudy
inland but you could see fabulous bare mountains in the distance,
one a vast smooth rock top, like a table top, alongside moonlight ridge i think.
when you get to the end of the track you are on a cliff right over
the southern ocean.......... huge surf rolling in about from a
kilometer out and crashing with a roar........ walked down along the
beach a bit until the rocks got too jumbly to be worth walking further over to the next beach .......
not a lot of colour in the scrub swept up by the wind along the
cliffs and sand dune ......... but stumbled up an amazing little
valley with a small stream trickling out of the dunes..... full of
colour of browns russets a purple flower right on the stream and
and white flower further up the bank....... got a shoe wet which is generally a good sign.......
sleeping in the vehicle and living on cherries and no fenol for
breakfast.......no fenol seems to provide a long lasting blood sugar
with cherries and perhaps other fruits, went several days with really
only cherries and no fenol for breakfast and maybe without dinner one day as well.
picked up a stone by a river before going for a a swim and got bitten
by jack ants which have a black body and red legs and some fingers
are swollen from the bites........ had given up msm but have been
taking 300 mg of msm from mid last night to see if it will reduce the swelling and it seems to be going down.........
