NOVEMBER HOLIDAY - PART 3

 OK, I'll finish up this long time ago now holiday & just pop through photos of our last few days towards Adelaide, then on the way home.  Hopefully once I've done this I can get back into the swing of things with another holiday from this year, days out and lots of crafty stuff.

Heading towards Adelaide from where I left off on my last post.

WEETHALLE.

The old railway station.

A collection of old ploughs.

The painted silos.

RED CLIFFS.
Red Cliffs on the Murray River is the home of this very large piece of machinery.

Isn't she wonderful.

Looking along the river.

We went to the gem shop in Mildura and purchased 2 pairs of rose quartz earrings for our youngest 2 granddaughters.  DH knew it well as he used to take people on tour there when he drove tourist coaches.

Can't remember exactly what this was, but it was along the riverside.

The sign says it all.
WAIKERIE
More silo art.

DH checking out the shelter with a pelican above.

More river views.  The Murray is an amazing river in my eyes.

More silo art.

More art with a wire man and two magpies.

Just had to cuddle one of the magpies.😀

We didn't do the cliff top walk, but maybe one day if we are down that way.

This will be the last of the snaps (I think) from this trip away and we were heading for home now.

Can't help myself when it comes to seeing a rusty old vehicles in a paddock.
Just have to take a photo.  Often think I should do a separate page for some I've taken over the years.

Old buildings are a bit of thing too.

More murals above and below but forgot to write down where these two were.

Just thought I have a book...........be back in a few ticks.  The silos are at Coonalpyn., but alas, the  colourful mural isn't in our book Silo Art The Ultimate Guide.  We bought this book on our travels at some time, and it was expensive but is great for browsing & finding town names when I have forgotten to write down or not taken it in the photo.
OK, wrapping up this post and hope to be back during the week with some more updates. 
Been so hectic this year and I'm still struggling with this new computer and all that is happening with my young brother.
Hope anyone who reads, enjoys our travels too.
Take care all and hugs from cool and windy down under
Susan.
