The Glasshouse Mountains lookout trip

Image
 I don't think I showed you the view of the Glasshouse mountains in the last post?  please excuse the hazy view. One does need to be there at the right time on the right day to avoid the haze spoiling the breathtaking views.  A short walk through the rainforest there  info about one of my favorite rainforest trees and some lovely fungi...  a parasite living up high in the tree  ah, somewhere to sit!  I love the patterns the shadows make in the forest  some tangled roots and more shadow patterns too Oh, and here's the blue crochet rug that occupied me during most of the winter...fun! Hope you have enjoyed catching up here. Hope you have something to enjoy doing too!! Be well...enjoy the rest of the week!!
