Things you see and don't see


One of our favourite walks is around North Lake and since we started about two years ago we have been amused by this piece of board propped up against the fence. Last time we walked there we didn't see it, so today we looked carefully. No sign of it. Some miserable b . . . . has taken it. I can't imagine why - it's not artistic or even very well done. It was just fun to see.

Further along we came across this.

We can't imagine why someone would go to all the trouble of carrying a wooden ladder into the bush, then just leave it propped up against a not very interesting tree several hundred metres from the nearest road. It is about two and a half metres long. Must have taken some effort. We don't know how long it has been there - we usually walk counter-clockwise around the lake and have never noticed it before. Today we walked clockwise and saw it. I would love to know the story behind it.
