In the interests of keeping peace in the canine world…

 

I thought a couple of photos of Ginger were appropriate for this challenge.

 

After all Maggie starred in my Wordless Wednesday post.  Fair’s fair.

Whether you consider this to be Ginger looking up or me looking down is up to you.

War Memorials

This afternoon I happened to glance up at a War Memorial.

Being ANZAC Day tomorrow, April 25th, I remembered that one of my first posts was the Dawn Service on ANZAC Day at this memorial

 It appears some people have left their memorials early.

Behind the original memorial…

is a more contemporary Memorial…

to those who served in conflicts after World War II.

As Thursday’s sun sets I know that at 0600 tomorrow this area will be…

surrounded by 400 or 500 hundred people remembering loved ones and the liberties they delivered us.

Mountain Mist

This was the view into the Grampians at Hall’s Gap last Thursday.  It was damp but beautiful weather after nine years of relatively dry weather.  Hard to believe climates can vary so much in a relatively short distance.  Afterall it is only about 2 degrees of the earth’s circumference between point A and point B.

Kookaburras

~~~~~

On Thursday we had planned a drive to Hall’s Gap.

Hall’s Gap is the main town in the Grampians National Park and …

is located in the southern end of the Great Dividing Range which runs down the east coast of Australia.

Our main reason for undertaking this 6 hour round trip was to visit the gallery of an artist who had organised the South African Safari last year.

We have kept in touch with Steve Morvell via FaceBook.  Although we read his comments regarding the wildlife surrounding his gallery.  We did not expect to see anything like this.

These wild kookaburras did not take long to realise that while MGW was not their usual food provider she was not there to threaten them.

My first post after a wonderful time in South Africa.

My contribution to

Look Up, Look Down

this week-9

~~~~~

Our last morning in South Africa provided us with a cruise on the Olifants river, just outside Phalaborwa.

~~~~~

Whether we looked up, or down, the sights, at times,

were daunting!

Not the best photo but it gives you the idea!!!!

My contribution to

for week-4.

Both shots are looking down over Geelong city and feature the Geelong Football Ground and its new light towers.

~~~~~

On Saturday, September 7th, Geelong will host one of the Australian Football League’s 2013 final games.  With a capacity of around 33,000 I believe this is the only stadium outside of Melbourne to host a finals game, in Victoria.

My first contribution to

I took this shot about two months ago as I found the roof fascinating.  It was the first time I had seen a slate tiled roof, at close quarters, and could only marvel at the workmanship and how well it has lasted.

~~~~~

The right roof above this door is where the first photo was taken.  I have walked through this door many times but only looked up once.
