River's ancient language awakens after 'sleeping' for generations

Ngaiawang language, once spoken frequently along the sweeping bend of the River Murray or the Rinta, was almost wiped out by colonisation.

Good morning tooters. A bit late for my morning spiel, I was up at 6am & sitting drinking a cup of tea & suddenly decided I wanted to go for a walk - so I did. It feels like such a long time since I’ve I’ve done so. So before 8.30am I’d walked 6km, posted a birthday card & gone to the supermarket for milk. Then home for breakfast, a big coffee & watering the garden.
It was 13-14c when I got up & today we’re heading to an ok 30c, easy to deal with.
I still haven’t had a shower & am still in lycra because I had thought I might mow, but I’m just a wee bit stiff in the legs now 😬, I need that shower. So I’ll leave mowing until later in the week. No big deal but I do intend to mulch the veg garden again. Not much else will be done today though.
Hope you’re all having a great #Tuesday, stay safe out there 🌻. #Weather #AussieSummer #Exercise #MurrayRiver

A quiet spot for a moment of reflection.
