I liked this row of old buildings at Cassilis a little down the road from the Royal Hotel.
We crossed the border into Victoria cruising down a lovely timbered road before breaking into the rich dairy country of Gippsland. It is wonderful to see the land green after more than 10 years of very dry weather. But most of the state of Victoria is still drought declared.

The Pasture by Robert Frost
"I'm going out to clean the pasture spring;
I'll only stop to rake the leaves away
(And wait to watch the water clear, I may):
I sha'n't be gone long. You come too.
I'm going out to fetch the little calf
That's standing by the mother. It's so young,
It totters when she licks it with her tongue.
I sha'n't be gone long. You come too."

Oh that's adorable.
ReplyDeleteLook at that cutie on the left!
I could live in that (with a big extension out the back).
Yeah, I like em all too. You'd need a front as big as Myers to try to sell the ripper on the right.
ReplyDeleteLet me guess: Cassilis is not weathering the storm very well.
Its a shame they can't be renovated and made homely again by people who need a home but I guess they need a job too.
ReplyDeleteThat's a beaut collection of houses, especially the tiny one on the left.
ReplyDeleteAh, yes, and I love the building on the far left. Filled with so much character :)
ReplyDeleteVery cute, but a bit sad about the state they're in. They deserve more love and care.
