Dorothy Falls and
Creek
   I knew this day was
getting closer, to write a blog that is, well how suitable to write one
dedicated to my mum – Dorothy Millard. We parked Mabel just behind the bridge
over Dorothy Creek. I posed in front of Dorothy Falls and then we took the dozen or so strides to
stand in front of the falls.
  The bottom of Dorothy Falls. If we zoomed in we could make
out the top.
  Next up was the Dorothy Creek Walk through the
woods along the track.
  The path went
through a natural ‘gateway’. The trunk was a deep red colour.
 The trees thinned
out and we found ourselves walking beside Dorothy
Creek.
  The very shallow water slowly joined Lake
Kaniere.
 Lake Kaniere was huge and mirror still.
  Incredibly, just behind my mum’s creek was someone else's mum’s seat.
I sat for a while and thought about
mum.
   Meanwhile, mischief
was planning. “We’ve done enough reflections, we’ve
done the splosh at Peter’s Pool. Now I’m after the reflection in the
reflection.” Right then. I tried to please with a couple of small
stones, but refused flatly to lift the suggested railway
sleeper, although I had to agree it “would have
made one girt big splash.” Back to stone selecting.
 I had to agree that
this effort was a puny one. “Our blog readers demand
more.” Yes dear. So we went back to the
original launch site, bigger stone......grr.
 I was rather pleased
with our best effort.
 Back to Mabel and
onward to find a picnic spot by the lake. Farewell to the
Dorothy’s.
 ALL
IN ALL MUM’S FAME HAS
SPREAD
A LOVELY LOCATION
