Gate to the stars

Almost three months in Yulara, time does really flies. I have just a little post on this subject, to let you; my returning readers enjoy the special view I have on my hill.

The house surrounded by a fence is build against a red sand hill. So I decided to put a gate at the backyard (take a look at the little detail I fabricated in the concrete slab) and to disturb the local fauna and flora with my present. I looked for the easiest way up to the hill. Cleaned up all the obstacles that were in the way to my walk up to the stars.

From this moment I have a private path that leads me to spectacular sunsets, sunrises, and star skies, I’m still collecting a 3612 stones to finish the path. There are already a 354 stones placed to guide me along the path. They are really necessary. Try to find your way in the dark down or up the hill, especially after some beverages. It’s only a 63 meters but its quit steep, and everywhere plants, and rolling down the hill is not a pleasant experience.

On the top of the sand hill, there is a really nice flat area to sit down and relax. So I have been there a lot, just watching the surrounding transform buy the sun companioned by the horny devils, snakes and my house mate, Jules the goanna. Together we are forced in silence to see the majestic colours and rock formations that the sand hill gives us.

Even at night its worth being on top, seeing the nightly skyline of Yulara city. The stars! Amazing, really amazing how many stars, movement, shooting stars and unexplained flying objects are up there. Laying in my swag, surrounded by my local friends, we just lay there and have philosophical discussions about our little existence in that never ending universe.
Yep, my gate to the stars, it’s a step to another universe.

Something different now, an old friend came up with a marvellous idea. Thanks Kathleen. She asked if I could put some maps in my blog to point out the places where I have been and where I will be. So I’m looking on the internet, if I can find such a thing, a map of Australia where I can mark all the places and transfer to my web. If anybody of my readers knows of such a thing, please let me know. Even other ideas are welcome to better the quality of my blog. The reason I started this blog, is to inform you about my life and to keep contact. And it has also become a kind of personnel diary.
This blog is made for you and is interactive, every comment, idea, thought, improvement, story, question, opinion, joke, disagreement and story are more than welcome.
