Is that a Coolibah tree beside the abandoned house? Every Australian knows about Coolibah trees because the bush ballad Waltzing Matilda is nigh on our unoffical national anthem but most of us live nowhere near the inland where they grow. Once a jolly swagman camped by a billabong, Under the shade of a Coolibah tree, And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled, You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me. Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda, You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me, And he sang as he watched and waited till his billy boiled You'll come a Waltzing Matilda with me.
"To muse, to creep, to halt at will, to gaze ... such sweet wayfaring"
William Wordsworth
Hats make a statement. You can make assumptions about people based on the hat they wear. The same is true about hair I suppose. How in the world does a person with straight blonde hair manage to twist it into dreadlocks? It must take forever.
ReplyDeleteLove the first one. I had one on my MEMES blog a few posts back that would fit in here well.
ReplyDeleteI love all those hair styles. They all seem to have been done with lots of care and attention.
ReplyDeleteAaaah to be young and able to grow hair...... :)
ReplyDeleteHats first, then no hats! Very clever sequence, Joan Elizabeth!
