Walking, walking, walking

Went up the zigzag track again this morning (easier, flat walkway is closed due to a rock fall - opens again tomorrow - I hope!!), and onto first basin again. Joined basin volunteer, Geoff and a small but dedicated bunch to walk the 45min each way trek to Duck Reach power station. It took as 2 hours round trip, but that was due to the excellent stories told by Geoff. This walk is part of the 'Walks on the Wild Side', council initiative and always finishes with a free BBQ -  starving artists have to get a free meal when we can!
Was an entertaining trip with lots of silly talk also provided by Klaus (say no more for those that know him!), David (our genuine walker), Michael (good company and good to keep pace with) and me (in it for the free food)  and volunteer co-ordinator Bernard who had the audacity to drive there and back only to nip into the track to take photos. A great morning and thanks to Bonnie for my vege burgers that I am growing to really like.
Had to zigzag home again so legs gave way this arvo and needed a rest, so researched some new photography techniques .... from the comfort of my chair.
Now is 6:15 local time and am enjoying a red and salmon pate, watching the water drift past.
Photos are looking up towards Duck Reach from the bridge (walk is on the left hand side - up and down...) and a narrow rock wall along the path that has another rock wedged on top!
