It's been one year since our Darling Kathy LeCren moved from this realm. Anyone who knew her was blessed because she was a being of golden light. Her off island family returned to Norfolk for the week and I was privileged to join them for a Hungi, a traditional Maori feast cooked slowly underground on hot rocks.
Sarlu was of course a prime presence. I wish I'd taken a photo of the valley behind the verandah because it is absolutely beautiful. A scene right out of Lord of the Rings"
Shelly and Marley enjoying the feast
The table of goodies ~ pork, lamb, beef, corn bread, tomatoes onions cucumber in cream, chicken, turkey, bananas, kumera, pumpkin etcetera, etcetera and cream pie.
A blurry shot of Sarlu and Michella as Michella tries desperately to dodge the dreaded camera.
Jon, Sarlu and John
Mags ~ doing just one of the things he does best
Jon ~ came home for the week and his sisters were delighted to see him
Shelly dobbing on Marley ~ and I've found out this afternoon that Shelly is just a dobber all round!
Chrissy looking gorgeous
John, who flew in with Marley, from New Zealand for the week
Greg wearing a gorgeous black and red silk creation that I gave to him. It's been driving around in my car for about two weeks. Periodically Greg receives a hat from me for his lovely head. The first came from Trinidad many years ago. He has, of course, returned the gesture by weaving for me a beautiful, traditional Island hat
Chrissy ~ again ~ looking gorgeous ~ again! She said she didn't take good photos so we're just proving a point here. She does!
