Quiet mornings in Melbourne

The morning starts with us all driving in to the city together. From the carpark, we all start to go our separate ways. But at 07:30 in the morning it can be very quiet time in the city. On peaceful morning the gallons are out, adding something special.

Time out to the Grampians

Last weekend with Melbourne cup day, Jennifer and myself took some time out.
We drove up to the Grampians only to find that most of the tracks and lookout I like going too were all closed due to the winter flooding.





The scenery was still great and it was pleasant day out, just the two of us.

Peace for us

I took this while we were in the Hanging Rock reserve.
Timers on the Camera can be handy.
As you can see, we're both getting older without losing the good looks.



Hanging Rock

This place is a nice picnic area just to the north of Mt Macedon. It has a history that goes back more then a 100 years, the rock formations are unique.







We plan to be going to Hanging Rock a lot more in the future. It's a quiet and peaceful place to go and relax.

Mount Macedon

Jennifer and I went to Mt Macedon for a break and drove up the mountain, aright it's not a big mountain  compared with world mountains but it one of the biggest in Victoria.


It was blowing a gale when we went up there. But it showed just how flat Australia.

Bacchus Marsh

This small country town is about 20 minutes NW of us and is a Vege patch Town.
Lost of Market gardens. But on a Saturday drive I passed through there and took this picture.




This scene was would suggest it was in Asia somewhere with all the hats and worker in the fields. But this was in Victoria, Australia.




It's cold

When we purchased the lot, the question was raised. Do we get frosts, "NO" was the answer.

Well explain this..



The black bark made it show up more, it was a very light one , but it was a frost.
