50 years

yesterday I attended the 50th anniversary celebrations of my old high school - Maclean High School. we had a lot of fun catching up with old friends and staff. I have also taught at this high school as an art teacher and earlier this year was back again for a period of time as the school counsellor. yesterday I felt such a connection to the history of the place...lovely!

catching up with old mates 

the bagpipe player's legs.... who was also in my year group at school.....Ross piped us into the school hall with our scottish school song. Maclean is a 'scottish town in Australia' and there are many references to it's scottish heritage.

it was a lovely day topped off with a dinner last night catching up with more friends and colleagues.

a moment to pause

yesterday after my early morning jaunt in the garden I went to my friend's place for a quick coffee and catch-up....and left many hours later in the afternoon! we had a lovely time chatting, eating, drinking coffee, looking at photos, reminiscing about past travel moments (together and separately), discussing the coming year and just enjoying each other's company. it was a lovely pause in what has been a busy time recently. thanks for a great day Rob!
