Well past it's prime! - a photo on Flickriver

            Our recent holiday had to be in Queensland because we would probably have not been able to get back into the state without a two week, self paid isolation. So we did as told and racked up a bit over 5400 kilometres in our own state, not a place we have done that much long distance travelling in for more than eight years. We didn't see as many old homes, falling down around their little bit of earth as in recent years - Queensland just doesn't seem to have as many as the wonderful variety we have seen in southern states. They either burn down or get eaten by termites I think because of course most are timber rather than of bricks or sandstone etc. as commonly used in cooler climes. 

We found this one in the little town of St. Lawrence, half way along the long stretch between Mackay and Rockhampton and off the beaten track a bit. One of those little villages where nothing moves except a creaking bit of corrugated iron.

This one is dedicated to Donna in the USA.
