New Eye Tour


Hubby was having a cataract operation so we decided to catch the train to the city and stay a few nights in a hotel.  It was also a chance for me to explore the city with a new camera eye!

Thinking I would use this for this week’s Taphophile Tragics post I dug a little further into William Lee’s story, it’s a very colonial Australian one. William was born of convict parents, living his childhood years around the Sydney region. In his early 20s he was issued with some government cattle, recommended as a suitable settler and granted 134 acres at Kelso near Bathurst. He was one of the first in the area and did well.
