After the Lions Club lunch and a cuppa at Mum’s I went to the Echunga cemetery searching for relatives 🙂 John Barton Hack (my distant, distant relative was an early pioneer of Echunga.)
A quick stop in Echunga and a reminisce, I went to primary school here.

This is an amazing oak tree in the bottom corner of the cemetery.
I didn’t find any relatives here but did find the grave of a good school friend Mandy Young. I still remember going to play at her house. She was only seven. I cleaned up her grave a bit.
Hi Kylie,
Memories of our childhood are so precious, aren't they?
I still remember my good friend, Elizabeth, who died from asthma just after her 21st birthday, in the ambulance on her way to hospital. 🙁
Friends are so important, and I truly thank you for your friendship – it's VERY highly valued! ♥
Have a great week,
Blessings,
Jillian
Thanks Jillian, yours is too 🙂
I agree Jilian! Friends are so important… Because you can have someone to talk to and can always help you get into a situation when you fall.
Hi Patricia, that's why I think online friends are no different from people we meet face to face!
Kind regards, Kylie 🙂
