How nice to walk amongst these lovely wild-flowers and beautiful sea views late in the day.
ReplyDeleteThe newly arrived Cornish miners and their families must have missed these soft summer evenings when they started life in a very different (and more harsh) environment in this country, so far from home.
Ah Betty, I think life was very hard here in those times and the terrain and weather was very harsh to those who had so little. I think our climate is not too dissimilar to Melbourne (I gather!)
