Humour (Is What You Need)



Yi Cui says this is a plant that struggles to grow on concrete. Personal memories, now that sounds sad, does it?

And when you walk on on Cottlesloe Beach...
You have to take life and death with humour, I tell ya!!



Yes! Tombstones.
I´ve seen so many.
Even "cute" ones...



Pic taken 1995 in Kalgoorlie.

And there, at sculptures by the sea... well, Ellen Broadhurst put these on.



"I´m hoping for a seachange" - Grace had to explain this to me as this is no German saying, but, YES. I do hope for one!

And if this was true... uh-oh!!!



"Still Life"

One day I´ll have a cat, so far I had (to have) a dog and, well...



"In Dog Years I´m Dead"

Her name was Inka, she died of cancer when I was 16.



But, you know, let´s hope for this, huh?



"I´m SO Busy!"

I´m really always busy, luckily!!!

How about you?

What strange things written on the artwork headstones. But I am not sure what I would have written if I had to think something up.

My last will is written. I don´t want a tombstone. I will be burned and put "somewhere".
My Brother looks after our parent´s graves so often. It´s time, work, money, I do not want this!

I really like the "graveyard." And your Inca was beautiful. What a friend she must have been.

Actually I´m a cat person, Jeanie, I always wanted a cat...
And Inka.... she was my dog but she sensed my Brother is a male and then he was her man.
