Seeking Layli at Liffey Falls














Today, we accompanied some friends on a visit to the beautiful Liffey Falls. Although it was cool and damp, we enjoyed a beautiful bush walk along a pathway through the forest that winds along the banks of the Liffey River. We had a delicious picnic lunch and we shared some devotions with our friends from Devonport and our friends from Nepal.

A visit to the Punchbowl Reserve with family













Our son Caleb and his daughter Hespa are visiting this weekend so we decided to do the the Punchbowl Reserve because our youngest grandson, Fergus enjoyed feeding the ducks that live by the pond in the reserve.

We met our son Raf, Evie and Fergus at the Punchbowl. Fergus enjoyed feeding the ducks and he enjoyed playing with his cousin, Hespa.

Vale Henry Bartlett


In 1963, I spent my first year as a teacher at Currie, King Island. I shared a house with 3 other young single male teachers. One of them was Henry. So ... our association goes back quite a few years. Henry introduced me to the Field Naturalists group on the island and through that group I learnt a great deal about the flora, fauna, geology and the history of King Island.
