Point Walter

I ventured into Doyley’s territory this morning on my way from dropping Mauzee to the airport.  I was meeting up with an old Squash pupil (who’s all grown up now :) at South Fremantle and had some time to fill in.  It was definitely a trip down memory lane as I used to walk to Point Walter from Mum and Dad’s most mornings when they I was living with them there in my early 20’s.  It’s a beautiful part of the world and I was fascinated to see two photographers sitting on their small stools at the end of the sand bar in the middle of the river.  I wandered over and had a chat and I could see that it was an amazing location for photographing birdlife.  I will definitely return.  Mum and Dad’s home was just at the point where you turn off Burke Drive to head down to the recreation area known as Point Walter.  I have posted an extra of the house that was built after Mum and Dad’s was demolished.  It takes up every square inch of the block.  I have no idea why anyone would want such a huge home.   I’ve also added an extra of a dear little Oyster Catcher (one of many) who were strolling along the waters edge fishing for food :). Lisa and I had a wonderful catch up and it was good to have the time to spend reminiscing about our lives over the past 50 years.  Boy, we covered a lot of ground.
