Country Pics

 

A familiar sight on Australian farms

 

This one is a little worse for wear

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Another common country edifice,

now gaining popularity in Autralian suburbs

 

 

This sign stood in the drum for months

before the Shire finally dug a hole for it

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This tree trunk has been standing for years,

and is still standing despite road works going on all around it
