Recreation Leave

[Howard]

Over the last year or so Jo and I have been lucky enough to get away for a few days here & there. I thought I'd share a couple of my favorite photos from these trips.
Who can guess where they are?

This one below was my favourite destination... (Near Daydream Mine, Broken Hill)


You can taste the history in the air here, absolutley beautiful... (The old Cudgewa line, beside the road to Corryong) Answered correctly by Rich!


And this one we visit almost regularly... (View from "The Rock", near Wagga Wagga) Answered correctly by Rich!

Who else would like to share their favorite holiday snaps?

[Richard Coutts-Smith]

Gee Howard, you have given us sooo many clues. Not Tassy, ACT, or WA, so thats a start. I expect most of the MLU audience may need more help.
Top one, across toward Mildura maybe.
Rail bridge looks like the old Cudgewa line, beside the road to Corryong.
View from The Rock
Added ours for a bit of contrast

Well Rich, your photo ain't from around here, that's for sure. Cabramurra area?
Looks more Northern snowy rather than Victorian...
And Rich, you have scored 2 out of 3 with your answers...

[Richard Coutts-Smith]

2 out of 3? I'll have another stab and say Coopers Creek.
Ours is a mountain in the Victorian Alpine area, although most days you can see Mt Kosciusko from a rather comfy chair behind the large picture window. Serenity.....

Mate that does look beautiful... except for the snow!
Here is the road to my first photo...

[Richard Coutts-Smith]

So many clues Howard, don't make it so easy.
Silver City Highway?
too flat for the Flinders Ranges
Starting to through darts at the map....

Why, oh why, would we need to "Get away" when there are views like this only 20 minutes from home?

Or this view right outside my office:



Very good to see you back here!

[Howard]

Welcome back, old friend!
I have missed your insight, knowledge and sense of humour!
I look forward to hearing more from you soon... AND seeing... because, as we all know, most threads are "...useless without Pictures!"

[Lynn Eades]

Welcome back from me as well!
To the more recent arrivals, a very knowledgeable chap has just returned to our forum.
Tony, keep me in mind for a visit during one of your future NZ trips.

We seem to be returning to this place in March each year, not shore of the atraction
