Of course the purpose of the tour was to pick up Royal. This is the first of four, the Royal Hotel at Tumut.
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."

HAhaha, last time I visited Tumut (a couple of years ago) I actually took a photo of this very hotel just so I could send it to you! I guess I forgot :D
ReplyDeleteYep you must have forgotten as this is the first time Tumut has been added to the collection.
DeleteTah day another Royal. Is it really necessary to have a sign saying "beer, Food, Music" Isn't that what a pub is for?
ReplyDeleteI guess it is based on the theory tell em and tell em again.
