Planning trips and lighting candles

       

    Map and plan of attack



  

    Candles and pipis


And more endings. As the year ended and a new one began, I was caught planning my 2013 trips with my volunteer Sam at "Who´s your Mumma" (where they actually sell Flor De Caña!), making maps and dreams and deciding how to best tackle the WA coastline to gather tuskfish data. Red Bluff with Gypsy is the name of the trip, and as Sam would say: "I am frothing". We will be tackling the area around the Ningaloo Marine Park, which is the northermost limit for baldchin groper and the mid-range for its sister species, the bluespotted tuskfish. Many clues are sure to be found.


And then back home, lighting candles, meditating on the year passed, placing intentions for the new one to come, and working on shell-based creations. Local pipi shells are just perfect!
