There was a lot of history in there. Art, photos, magazines, nick knacks etc. We honeymooned there and have been back a few times. I'm hoping that some things were able to be removed last week.![]()
Heritage-listed resort in Gold Coast hinterland destroyed by bushfire
Heritage-listed Binna Burra Lodge in Gold Coast hinterland destroyed in Queensland bushfires - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)
I can report the Gold Coast is blanketed in smoke. We're at the Exhibition and Convention Centre with students competing in the Queensland Cheer and Dance Championships (which is very vigorous - makes an old bloke like me feel tired just watching).
Looking out the glass walls I can see the smoke covering the coast. Really feel for the people out there in the hills.

The town of Linville is now under "Leave Now" status! Not looking good there.
Water bombers eased the situation a little. Still not good.
UPDATE: Linville fire now contained | Gatton Star

Never been this bad this early in Spring in recorded history. I'm wondering whether we have enough fire fighters to get through the summer.

I haven't slept all night as I have a rental property at Peregian. About to head up there now to see if I can get into the area.
I keep hearing conflicting reports about damage in the area.
If it is arson, those little ****ers had better not get in my way.
