DONA NOBIS PACEM ... bright dancing colour...

Colourfully decorated seat outside the Ron Roach Gallery at Balnarring.


bright dancing colour
on a dull day
wins a smile or two

a peaceful smile
erasing the senseless gloom
of grey wars


**** I want my world to look like
the colours of peace ****

Rustic Dream(e)s

This sign at Flinders intrigues me.
1. I have no idea why the word "dreams" is spelt with an extra "e".
2. The sign seems to suggest some kind of yin and yang (black and white) but the division seems odd.


dreaming of old wares
maybe weathered and broken
but not forgotten

red and orange...

Not sure what this heavy mover does exactly, but it seems interesting.
I found it parked near the entrance to the Coolart Wetlands at Somers.

Warrawee Homestead

Warrawee Bed and Breakfast at Balnarring was originally known as Warrawee Homestead
and home to the Van Suylan family.
The homestead has been a general store, a post office, a hotel, a restaurant and now a B & B.
It was even the rest stop inn for Cobb and Co coaches.
The homestead is regarded as the beginning of Balnarring in the 1860's.
It is near the current shopping village.
