My grandsons and I went to the now cleared up Lanes Cove. We took a couple of pictures and they played for a while , but the wind was getting stronger, so we left. I can just vision how many children now adults have also either worked or played there. My wife and I also went to the dedication of the shack. It was a great time. So I took it upon myself to try and write a poem. I hope everybody likes it and please pass it on as you may see fit. As you know Time is like the sands of the hourglass. Our lives are destined by it . It has always been embedded in my heart and soul through my mothers whispers it is what we leave behind that counts. With that said please pass it on and I invite you to visit my website created by my former Rainbow Girl Holly. Love to all and give your children a big hug. They are our future. The Shack is back.
