I was managing a motel in Cardwell at the time. <br /><br />At the time Margaet lived in a cottage in the Edmund Kennedy Natural Park just north of Cardwell. Because of all her environmental work she and her late husband, Arthur, had done National Parks said she could live there until her death; and upon that sad time, it would revert to National Parks. Sadly, it was wiped out by Cyclone Yasi.Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15835982875620956300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8918426219308228672.post-57146190136015124182017-01-29T21:41:04.109+11:002017-01-29T21:41:04.109+11:00I had forgotten that Bush was the President at the...I had forgotten that Bush was the President at the time of 9/11.
