topped with cloud, straight road
close, seen far; warning

Irene Waters 19 Writer Memoirist
I began my working career as a reluctant potato peeler whilst waiting to commence my training as a student nurse. On completion I worked mainly in intensive care/coronary care; finishing my hospital career as clinical nurse educator in intensive care. A life changing period as a resort owner/manager on the island of Tanna in Vanuatu was followed by recovery time as a farmer at Bucca Wauka. Having discovered I was no farmer and vowing never again to own an animal bigger than myself I took on the Barrington General Store. Here we also ran a five star restaurant. Working the shop of a day 7am - 6pm followed by the restaurant until late was surprisingly more stressful than Tanna. On the sale we decided to retire and renovate our house with the help of a builder friend. Now believing we knew everything about building we set to constructing our own house. Just finished a coal mine decided to set up in our backyard. Definitely time to retire we moved to Queensland. I had been writing a manuscript for some time. In the desire to complete this I enrolled in a post grad certificate in creative Industries which I completed 2013. I followed this by doing a Master of Arts by research graduating in 2017. Now I live to write and write to live.

Thanks Sherri. This far north coast of NSW and SE Qld coast are full of old volcanic plugs like this. They make for spectacular viewing and often loom up like this, drawing you towards them.

That looks very much like Mt Lindesay 🙂

Gosh, you are probably right Suz. I knew it was one or the other and decided it was Mt Warning. Mt Lindsay has the flatter top of the two and this is pretty flat and if memory serves me we’ll this photo was taken somewhere around Kyogle. 😀

Warning is sharper and if you took the photo from Kyogle then it is more than likely Lindesay 🙂 It is pretty distinctive with the table top.
So where in Qld are you?

I grew up in Casino and should have known that and you are definitely right. I’m living near Noosa, Sunshine Coast. Are you Northern Rivers?

He he…. we forget things 😉
I’m a Qld’er but not far over the border. It’s about 45 minutes to the border gate from here. Noosa is beautiful. That’s a sea change from Casino that’s for sure.

Casino seems like a lifetime ago – in reality it probably is- and we do enjoy living up here. You never know – I might run into you around the place, you’re not that far away and we probably both hit Brisbane at times.
