The door to the mill on top of relentless hill

According to my word web online dictionary, relentless means something like “never ceasing”. This is the adjective that Kathy used while we were walking up what I would call a slight rise :) . If you think I might be being stoic, it wasn’t steep enough for a ball to roll down. If there were lots of rain it would form puddles rather than run down the…ummm, slight incline.

OK, to be fair, she had just walked up Bishop and Clerk, which is a hill, and she was tired, and there was no café on top of Relentless hill to look forward to :)

Wheat was grown on Maria Island for a short while. There was a windmill used to grind wheat and corn. The door is to the miller’s cottage which was next to where the windmill used to be. This latch looked like it was made by a blacksmith.

    It was relentless, after dragging my sorry a..e all over Maria Island, relentless hill was the proverbial straw! And water would most definitely have run down it and not pooled. Why are people so unkind, to quote Kamahl, or should I say just one person…..
