This is my black and white version of the historic Shot Tower in Melbourne, Australia. It is located in a mall in the Central Business District right downtown. The modern mall was built around this historic building.
Kahn & Etta in their Driza-bones and Dharf bandanas in front of a beautifully peeling Scribbly Gum tree. Very, very light sprinkles of rain as we walked.
Daily Dog Challenge: With Style
Santa’s evil Aussie twin - You can only hope that you are not on his list for a home invasion this Christmas.
With the annual 1000km race around Mount Panorama racetrack at Bathurst in New South Wales having just been run, I thought it timely to post this shot taken back in 2004. On our big trip around Australia, I could not go past a visit to the iconic racetrack. Most of the year, the whole track is public roads. On this particular day, there just happened to be a hillclimb meeting in progress, and I was fascinated to see cars going the opposite way on the track to the usual race direction.This area of the track is known as "skyline" for obvious reasons. The Holden sign is the other icon and sadly passes into history now the Holden brand name is no longer with us with manufacturing of General Motors' Holden now ended in Australia.
I didn't quite fit in the whole name of this part of the track on the wall - it is fully known as Brock's skyline, in reference to the legendary racing driver Peter Brock, another Aussie icon.
For the record, the next day, we did our own hot laps of the track, but sadly we were very strictly limited to the local speed limits which at the time were 60 kilometres an hour right round the track - so our hot lap was 6 minutes and 30 seconds. The race speed at this part is usually around 180 and the lap times just 2 minutes and 5 seconds! We found it scary enough here just doing 60!

Torquay Victoria, Australia.
Torquay faces Bass Straight at the 'bottom' of Mainland Australia.
The Surf brands 'Rip Curl' and ' Quicksilver' were both founded here.
This is a quiet bush road near my house, the trees are absolutely amazing!!! If you have not been to Australia I am not sure you will fully understand the feast of the senses that the Aussie bush provides. Standing alone in the bush at sunrise you see the subtleness of the colours, the greys and greens, the sounds of the birds and wildlife...... the condensation dripping.....
and the incredible smell of the native Eucalypt forests that imprints a memory that will last forever... Happy Australia Day!
I was traveling on business this week and Jean, my wife, sent me this video telling me Jasper will be ready to play when I got home. I love how he shows Ella the Elephant what’s what.
This Australian Shepherd thought it might be funny to stick his tongue out during photo time. I mean every photo we took of him, he stuck his tongue out. Apparently he does this all the time, just one more quirky thing dogs do.
Our Aussie friend Bodhi, who we met when he was around 5 months old at Fleet Peoples Dog Park. Winter Park, Florida. 2007.
Echo and Jax running between the vines at Cobbler Mountain Cellars - You can just see Jax in hot pursuit of Echo - I think it frustrates him a bit, no longer being able to catch up - but he is 10 and she is just a young whippersnapper of two. Fast as Echo is, I don't think she would have caught Jax back in his prime. It was a super cold day for April, so the dogs were THRILLED, and their humans were bundled up and still shivering.
Cal, Jasper's blood-nephew, is totally focused on Grandma who was digging in her pocket for a treat. Cal is a fun, kind of goofy Aussie that lives with my sister-in-law and family in Wisconsin.
I took this while walking in the bush with the grandkids.Gums(eucalyptus trees ) tend to drop large limbs at any time.the dead limbs become homes for lizards ,snakes,insects,an small marsupials,the trees them selves are home to parrots, small birds,koalas,reptiles,and insects.

Making my grandmother in Heaven proud. Lamb, tomato, red potatoes, and acorn squash. Would be better with Queensland Blue.
What can be more iconic than the kookaburra is for Australia. He is enshrined in song, verse and in Australian folklore. If you remember the early days of TV when the old Tarzan movies were around, you would remember hearing an odd sounding bird that sounded like a human laughing. Yep, you guessed it right, its the kookaburra.
I can recall after our first night in Australia we were awakened by the sound of something that sounded like a monkey laughing. Our young son had the answer when he said, "That's a kookaburra, the laughing bird." He did his research.
Anyway, we have five of this great birds that every morning start their laughing at the earliest hint of light. The laughing continues as they get closer and closer and finally they are on the fence behind our window singing in the new day, and waiting for a morning handout.
