Two utes


Cookamidgera turned out to be a little town (about 18 kms outside the big town of Parkes). Old cars go to die.  There was a church and quite a sizeable cluster of houses, every one of them seeming to have a collection of rusting vehicles.

      Oh yes, kids in the back. That is something long gone.

    It is incredible the number of old rusting vehicles in this blog. Over here in super tidy Germany, I hardly see any.

Windy August

Tumbleweed It was August (known to be a windy month of the year) and it was blowing a gale.  Tumbleweeds hurtled across our path, pressed forward by the busy wind. While I was photographing the tumbleweed, I braved the icy blast to find a few more tiny flowers and fruits by the roadside.

Big sky country 3

The Pinnacles, Broken Hill Clear blue sky is very dull!  But there is something of interest in the image.  These odd shaped mountains appear on the skyline just outside the city. I had planned otherwise for my closing sky today.  On a hill outside town there are wonderful sandstone sculptures which I saw the last time I was here. I planned to photograph them against the setting sun but we left our run too late, so you don’t get to see them until our return journey.
