Old Abandoned Wagon

Found this old abandoned wagon in a paddock on the way to Cadoux. It's working days are long gone.  Linking with  Rubbish Tuesday today as I think this fits the bill, although I don't really see it as rubbish

Signs at Cadoux

These signs are from Cadoux, a small township approximately 50 klms from us. It's claim to fame is a 6.2 magnitude earthquake which hit the town and demolished several buildings on 2nd June 1979. It was the second largest earthquake to hit Western Australia.This first sign was taken in the ladies toilet at their rest stop. Very welcoming, don't you think ?   Linking with Signs, Signs

Sunday Drive

A nice day for another Sunday Drive. Today we took the Wongan to Cadoux Road. It would be easy to just drive quickly by and not notice anything, but there is always something to photograph when you travel a new road. I also found another country mural to share for Monday Mural.



Hakea and Pink Pokers are starting to flower along Airport Road in Wongan Hills




A call of "stop the car, go back" when I spotted this old relic in a paddock




This little Robin Red Breast stayed put long enough for me to get a photo of it


A contrast to the dry paddocks, one side of the road green, one grey.

  
Beautiful gum trees line the road


More relics of days gone by




This welcome sign was in the toilets. Unfortunately the store was not open for us to claim our free drink. Nice touch though. Nothing is open on a Sunday in many small country towns.


The rec centre is the hub of many a country town. Bingo, I have just found an entry to link with Monday Mural.  http://oaklanddailyphoto.blogspot.com.au/


After devouring our packed lunch of roast beef rolls, coffee and oat  slice we made our way home .
