I caught up with my friend Penny who told me she's living in Opossum Bay. As you know, I'm blissfully happy with my unit but Opossum Bay is glorious and the idea of a vast expanse of glass overlooking the sea was, briefly, hugely attractive. Well it still is, actually. Naturally, the next day I drove down to check it out.
It's so Southern you'd swear Kunyanyi was a stone throw's away
best pig face I've seen for yonks
appealing curiosities
quirky
and truly beautiful
It is soooo Penny (apart from the pig face). Her previous house burned down and it took a while for her to decide what to do / where to go next. I'm so glad she's found here.
Many years ago when Steve and I were living in Tasmania the first time, Steve applied for a job in Woy Woy or Dee Why, can't remember which. He didn't get the job but I spent happy weeks imagining what life would be like in a place defined by sea living. I get the same feeling in South Arm / Opossum Bay. So today I checked out the South Arm Community Market, and felt totally at home. Took some photos but they didn't do it justice. Absolute best find:
