About 4-5 years ago,
Number 2 son told us that he was
going to propose to his girlfriend.
AND that he needed our help.
He wanted to propose in a World War I
gun emplacement under
Point Lonsdale Lighthouse.
And we were to decorate the site.
This is what we found.
Soon, with some young help, we had this…
….starting to take shape.
Lanterns and candles on the ocean side…
…and the majority of the graffiti hidden.
Unfortunately I cannot say that none of our…
….agapanthus was hurt during the decorating process.
Ocean views…Point Lonsdale Pier.
In the distance, Point Nepean, from where
my Grandfather fired the first shot of World War I.
If ever you cruise into Melbourne
you will pass through this stretch of water.
.
She did say ‘Yes’ and there was a wedding,
three years ago come November.

What a wonderful place to propose…thanks to your redecorating! I love the connection to your family history too.

It was a nice place to propose, though I think the history side was not considered. Our boys seem to think all history required can be found on Google. 🙂
