2018-2019 SUMMER POSTCARDS
Over the summer holidays, friends and family tend to give far too much of the good things in life.
President Kurt has been a recipient of such hospitality.
But he will be 'stepping' to fitness, starting at Bondi this Friday, and hopes to meet us all there!
And, speaking of Friday - Back to Business.
The walk report editors for the walks on Friday 15 February are:
EZY - Helen A and Regular/Plus - Deidre.
Can you kindly send your words and images to Helen and De?
.
25 January: 'An early morning South Coast Passage cruise out of Huskisson around Pt Perpendicular
.....fantastic experience and beautiful weather.
Including a view of Drum and Drumsticks through a window in the rocks in Gum Getter's Inlet.
Best wishes to all,
Deidre'
Many thanks De - from an editor who didn't know about the seal colony..
January 15. 'A postcard from Bateau Bay - 6.40am. Elaine'
... and around HVB's base in Turramurra we swelter. Thanks, Elaine!
14 December: - 'From our camping spot in Booti Booti NP from which there are two lovely walks.
Booti Hill walk, the trackhead of which can be seen on this photo on the southern end of this Seven Mile Beach stretch.
The other is the Wallis Lake walk.

09 December: From John G - 'Yacaaba - the northern headland of Port Stephens.'
... and from the NP NSW blog: 'Yacaaba walking track is a hard walk ...the rocks on the steeper parts of the track can be very slippery'. So, thanks John!

29 November 2018. From Anne G, in Tasmania:
"This is The hillview group at Marion's Peak, Cradle Mountain NP
Barbara is absent due to a heavy cold. She is recovering well
We have been blessed by the weather
It has been cloudy, but we had only 10 minutes of rain each walk
We are enjoying blue sky for the first time at Swansea."
It's a break from tradition to publish a 'selfie' postcard. But one of the quartet is the Boss!-Ed.
In our post box today; our first summer postcard!
"By the time of the next Hill View Social outing to Paynes Crossing (hopefully Spring 2019) the new farm cottage (‘Glendaruel’) will have emerged from its chrysalis of scaffolding and builder’s rubble for Hillviewers to look at!”
Good to hear from you, Secretary John.
We have missed you, and dusted off our dictionaries. - Ed
