Wanna Know a Secret? & More Squares

One thing that most people don't know about me (until now) is that I love bridges. I adore them. I'm trying to save up for a new camera so that I can do a series of photographs and paintings of them. My current digital camera is great if you know the zillion ways to use photoshop to fix all the problems that a 6 year old 3.3 megapixel camera will cause, but if you want to be able to take a photo in anything but optimal conditions, forget it.

Anyway, back to the bridges. Because I love them so much, I was delighted to find the Bridges in Australia Flickr group, which I came across while I was looking for a group for the photos that I took at the breakwater yesterday. Particularly check out the sea bridge (also known as the ocean bridge) at Coledale. That bridge is amazing! If it weren't for the million dollar price tags on most of the houses Coledale would be a pretty amazing place to live if you like wild ocean scenery. We've been there in a particularly nasty rain storm, it was pretty hairy!

Since they aren't of bridges, I ended up putting my photos in the Wollongong Flickr group.

BTW, I don't live in Wollongong proper, I live 10 minutes down the road. We couldn't find anywhere in Wollongong that had a backyard for the cats so we went outside a little. There was a house in West Wollongong with a particularly lovely yard but the house was a dump. I can't wait to be able to buy a new house. We want to live near Shellharbour Village or somewhere similar. ~~Sigh~~

Look, more squares!

Squares 73-76

That makes 76 squares done. We didn't end up going to SMPTE yesterday because Jamie didn't want to travel so far the day before his shift started so I made squares instead. Fingers crossed I can get 8 done today to put me another day ahead. I'm onto the dark pink squares now, with only dark brown and the multicolour squares to go!

24 squares to go!

I love bridges! And I have a bit of thing for boats and lighthouses too, so I am quite enamoured with your pictures. Oh yes, that is a lovely place to live :)
