digging


last week i was walking through hobart when i noticed this digging going on at the site of the old hobart myer building. how exciting. i love this sort of thing - it makes me think about the way hobart used to be. arctas have done some amazing archaeological work in tassie, i wonder what they will find this time.  

speaking of history bits; i watched "who's been sleeping in my house" on abc last week. the episode was about a house in battery point. i thought it was fascinating. it will be on iview for a little while longer so there is still come to catch it.

  1. I always wants to be an archaeologist when I grew up. I guess its a once in a lifetime opportunity to find those treasures. It will also be good to see that hole in the city gone.

  3. I love who's been sleeping in my house and the battery point story was extra special. I think they have another Tasmanian property next week. I love knowing the spirit and energy or some might argue spirits of people past stay within the walls of of our homes.
