Snoofing around town in the early evening , we found “Mountain-Metal-Art” at 47a Hickory St…and Inside , Katiuska Cruz, Jewellery maker plus and Stephen Viola, Blacksmith !  The Talk-fest was on ! Yay ! .. Beautiful and friendly .. with a realy great Gallery/Studio/Shop.   They told us about a big ‘SteamPunk Party’.. held annually in Dorrigo.. 2014 date still to be announced…. Sounds like a seminal affair in the SteamPunk world and by all accounts a HOOT .. as is also, we were informed, the Annual Bluegrass festival here that we may well return for..! ….. Stephen teaches Blacksmithing up here and these guys seem well connected to the community in the Bellengen Shire .. Loved meeting them and Steve is a Uke player !! (Plunker he says ?)    Writing this in a camp site near Danger Falls.. Magpie chorus, Cups of tea, Cow- Pong and Green andSunnyVistas .
