First there was good family time at The Steps at Barrington (www.thestepsbarrington.com.au). Short hikes, mountain biking, river swimming and campfires allowed in January. I hate it when Weekly's links don't work. I really should blog somewhere else. In the meantime here are three YouTube shorts: My cicada at The Steps Barrington: https://youtu.be/9CE58CVi5jI Luka at The Steps Barrington: https://youtube.com/shorts/PhfH406D3s0 Steve at The Steps Barrington: https://youtube.com/shorts/UN1D6qInAT8 Ispent one night roadside at Kundabung, on my way to Bellingen for Camp Creative. As usual I stayed in the Showgrounds there. I didn't make it to my class in urban sketching every day because I kept damaging my ankle. On the Friday evening, after visiting friends in Urunga I pulled in beside some other vans outside the sailing club in the dark. I found out later that wasn't permitted, but it was an ideal spot beside the river and great fun watching the local dragon boat team arriving to practice. The urban sketching was great fun; you can see what I did at https://www.instagram.com/p/C5Sv5P3oxYm/ or https://youtube.com/shorts/KEHT-ACfhPQ I drove from there straight to Macksville Hospital, arrived there at 8:30am saying that I thought my foot needed X-raying. I spent a hungry day in the emergency waiting room (café closed on weekends) and left at 4:30pm with the advice to get it X-rayed when I got home. Stopping at the Lyons Park beside the river was nice, and I got to Gosford Hospital the next day, where I was seen to in less than 60 minutes. If only I'd decided to drive straight through!! Driving was no problem, only walking, and it turned out to be only a sprain with no bones broken.
