Beautiful hot sunny day for Australia Day. The local celebrations were at the Inverell Pioneer Village which is a collection of buildings from this district which are full of all sorts of historical things. Was free entry today which was a great way to have a look around and to watch the things happening.

Great to hear this. Thought there had to be one in a place settled by the Scottish.

Enjoyed this sign. Would love to know why organ grinders had to sleep in the wash house.

In town, not at the museum. One of several beautiful old buildings which have been well looked after.
