Going north in January is always different each year. Some years it's hotter and more humid other years the big wet is coming and usually for some reason I don't get caught in it. This year that too was the case and it came in on our heels as we drove home. It was a quick trip and we got to swim at Clark Beach near The Pass in Byron which is one of our favourite beaches. Nick and I spent Saturday morning at the community hall in Uki catching up with two of Mum's friends over chai lattes from the Hari Krishna kitchen. Out on the verandah it was sunny and a great Saturday morning atmosphere, so much more relaxed than a Sydney cafe at the same time of day, I checked out the Curious Artists show at Chinderrah to see what works Anastasia Davis was showing this year. Her style is growing in lots of different directions now - photography, painting and still the quirky hand drawn pieces. Her art will have been packed up and stored out of the flood waters by now. I'll have to ring them in a few weeks time when they reopen to see that they're okay.
