It happened Tuesday. We were quietly sitting by the fire, getting warm, when we heard a big crack! We looked out the window and witnessed a massive tree limb fall on the house we were staying in, wrecking the gutter and hitting the roof with a thud. Fortunately the roof stayed intact, and we were able to complete our stay!
This was our 20th Wedding Anniversary, and we were about to have dinner in the very room where we had our reception all those years ago. In fact, we spent our wedding night in this very cabin!
St Mounts is a wonderful old style guesthouse from the late 19th century, with period furniture and an amazing atmosphere. It really hadn’t changed much in the 20 years since our wedding. I wish I could say the same for my looks!

Now, I am a student of metaphysics, and we had a very powerful bonding the day we connected on a rebirthing workshop all those years ago. We scoured the Blue Mountains looking for the perfect reception venue, and St Mount’s felt right. On the day, I went up there with my family and organised the reception to the last detail. I have done logistics for many events, and wanted to make sure we could just enjoy ourselves on the night.
When Linda came up from Sydney she went through an horrendous thunderstorm so bad that they could hardly see ahead. The wedding party duly arrived as the weather cleared to a magical sunset at Sublime Point (picture at left). It was pretty special.
Well, I believe everything happens for a reason, so the tree falling at that particular time can’t possibly be a coincidence. I am interested in whether you have had a similar experience, or can shed some light or insight on what this event means.
The place is operated by an ex detective and they hold murder mystery nights there, so its over to the super sleuths among you!
In any event it was an anniversary to remember!
