Day 2: Esperance to Albany: The Unconventional Ride. 750 km in 10 days. At the eastern end of Barker Inlet Beach. Google Maps said there was a track here. I guess a rock fall is a track right? Well it worked out okay, I went down it, fingers crossed :
Managed to get a few shots in the fog on my way to work this morning. This was the last shot before I had to fly away up the road, see the colour just coming through in the sky as I was leaving.
Track to Hollyhill Wood
This trail was created by Mrs Albertina Choules in the woods local to her remote home.
She was tragically murdered and set alight in 2016 during a robbery attempt on her home.

I was on an overpass of the rail line feeding the railroad bridge that crosses Wheeler Lake on the Tennessee River in Decatur, Alabama. Imagine my surprise when this strange consist passed underneath. It turned out to be FRA DOTX 219: A Track Geometry Car operated by the US Department of Transportation and hauled around the country to check the geometry -- and condition -- of rail.
Right place at the right time!

The track from Arpafeelie through Gallows Wood to Redcastle is ever changing. From fields with sheep and cattle to natural woodland, and then some lovely older plantations. Here we have Douglas Firs on the left and European Larches on the right, but there are self seeded and natural trees scattered throughout. The Firs are magnificent and straight like ship's masts. The Larches, too, are pretty special plantation trees that are a gorgeous colour this time of year, and are a front to more Douglas Firs and Scots Pines behind.
