http://sydney-eye.blogspot.com/2015/05/the-three-bridges-1.html
With open eyes, and a generous heart, there is awe 'round many a corner . Monday, 18 May 2015. The Three Bridges - 1. Down here, in Sydney, Australia, we are pretty chuffed with our bridge, even more so than with our opera house. But that doesn't necessarily mean it is the best bridge in the whole damned universe. A through arch bridge. This image of Hell Gate Bridge was taken by Dave Frieder. The longest through arch bridge in the world. Labels: Hell Gate Bridge. I like the third bridge mainly because I...

http://sydney-eye.blogspot.com/2015/08/sow-pigs.html
With open eyes, and a generous heart, there is awe 'round many a corner . Friday, 14 August 2015. The " Sow and Pigs. Is a submerged reef, just inside Sydney Heads. Explosives were used to break it up to make it less dangerous for shipping. Sow and Pigs Reef. Splendid views, Julie. August 14, 2015 1:39 am. The sow and pigs. Such a descriptive name.

Plumbing the Deeps: Bowel Cancer Screening - FOBT and Colonoscopy
http://jstorry.blogspot.com/2015/01/bowel-cancer-screening-fobt-and.html
The last romantic . Saturday, January 24, 2015. Bowel Cancer Screening - FOBT and Colonoscopy. The waiting is over. The results were all clear. And, no cancer. I guess my wait was short in the grand scheme of things, but not in my mind. From mid-November to 23rd January. The weight that builds up is tremendous. And it is mostly carried singularly, and silently. For, really, what is there to talk about? No facts. Just fears. In June 2013, I spent 5 days in the public hospital with pneumonia. In June 2...

Plumbing the Deeps: The Water Diviner - good try, but no cigar
http://jstorry.blogspot.com/2015/01/the-water-diviner-good-try-but-no-cigar.html
The last romantic . Sunday, January 11, 2015. The Water Diviner - good try, but no cigar. I enjoyed this film, which I saw at Dendy Opera Quays at 9:30 Saturday morning. At that time there were very few people in the cinema, even though I'd had to queue for my ticket, so something was popular. Check for me please, but I think, right at the beginning of the film, the Turkish Major comes out of a tent, ready for the final charge in December 1915, sipping coffee. I felt certain he was sipping it from on...

Sydney Eye: State Library ... aGAIN ...
http://sydney-eye.blogspot.com/2015/08/state-library-again.html
With open eyes, and a generous heart, there is awe 'round many a corner . Thursday, 13 August 2015. State Library . aGAIN . The vestibule often has a heads-up for a current exhibition or workshop. The Mitchell Wing was commenced in 1910, which is quite late in the history of Sydney. Hence, it will be apparent that this building was not the original home of the State Library collection. This marble staircase winds from the vestibule up to the first floor. August 13, 2015 1:50 am. What a wonderful place...

With open eyes, and a generous heart, there is awe 'round many a corner . Tuesday, 11 August 2015. International Map Year 2015-2016. I must admit that I lose track of the plethora of "Year of"s. However, being a passionate historian, and Family Historian, this one holds a spot close to my heart. I live in the municipality of Willoughby. Back in 1890, it was mostly bush in my part of Sydney. The first estate was not carved out in the suburb of Castlecrag until 1920. Labels: Higinbotham and Robinson. Subsc...
