Bendigo Lost Trades Fair.

There was the Bendigo Lost Trades Fair on Saturday.  The weather was hot and melting at 38 degrees, but there was so much to see there and so many people turned up.  We had a wonderful time.  See to the bottom for the photos of the amazing Silo Art at Colbinabbin.

As soon as you get in there's all the food stalls.

March Long Weekend getaway.

We had an extended March Long Weekend getaway to visit friend in Nagambie, Victoria.  It was heatwave weather conditions, SO hot and dry.  But having said that we had a wonderful time away.

First port of call was to Hanging Rock in search of Miranda.

The cloud was low over the Macedon Ranges.

Luckily it was sunny at Hanging Rock.

It was fairly early and cool so the wildlife was still about.

You can see for miles.

The paddocks were very dry in the distance.

Heading back down Hanging Rock.

Here's Miranda.  Found her.

Glorious sunset.

I found these gorgeous photos on the computer I took in December.  Magnificent sunset.

The sun sets behind our home and we don't always get to see it.  This evening it coloured the whole sky which in unusual.  Totally magical.

Thunderbirds Are GO - FAB

We called into the workshop as we do most days but this time it was full of Thunderbirds.  FAB.

One white and one black.  All nice and shiny.

Plus Gerrard's Ute.

Quick trip to Campbell Town

We had a quick trip to Campbell Town this morning for work.  The countryside is so dry and we could do with a drop of rain.
