Heidi in the sun






Ok I think I've Moved On from the theme of the last two posts now. Can talk about other stuff...phew.

Beau and I and the Lovelies from the West spent the afternoon at the Heidi which in the 6 years I have lived in Melbourne, I had never visited. Beautiful winter day, quiet, hardly anyone there.

Beau got through the day splendidly despite being unable to touch the most touchable sculptures and paintings. It was fun looking with him, not with an artist's eye but with a child's eye. I love how your kids pull you into their private world when you are in public, into their adventures with innocent disregard for social and cultural etiquette.

Joy Hester Girl With Book on Head. ( Love her work).

I could imagine John and Sunday Reed, and their Siamese cats, and fellow Penguin friends (and their kids!?), hanging out, making art, waxing lyrical and philosophical, growing veges, having affairs, lots of walks beneath those glorious trees and drinking some good wine......
