Yesterday, an elderly friend who is 87 wanted company to check out facilities at Mt O'Brien Lookout. He takes it upon himself to go up weekly to check that there has been no litter left and that the BBQ is clean. His wife doesn't like him going alone so we accompanied him.
Linking today with Outdoor Wednesday
Luckily I had my camera as this beautiful native creeper was in flower, I can't remember the name .
Looking over to Lake Hinds in the distance
The paddocks are all a lovely shade of golden brown now that the heat of summer is here
To the naked eye I couldn't see these ruins of an old house until my learned friend pointed them out
Melaleuca along the road to the lookout are in flower now
Those are great views, sorry you are so hot up there. What a gem your 87 year old is.
ReplyDeleteMagnificent Australian landscapes and a very beautiful creeper to boot.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful. When I see old homestead houses I think about what life was like when they were vibrant. - Margy
ReplyDeleteIf only abandoned buildings could speak. It was so kind of you to accompany this person on the walk. Happy New Year from our house to your house.
