    Well I was holding off with these photos but for the sake of this thread I will put some up. I hope Gus doesnt mind.
    For of those who have not met or seen Gus's thread or blog, he is an american guy driving around Australia in a series one 107".
    It must have been early December he came to our place.
    We decided to go for a drive around the property with dad riding shotgun with Gus , so he could tell him about the place etc and also I thought it would be nice for dad to have a ride in his series one. I got gate and photo duty on the motorbike.

    This is an old house/hut and old shed. the house/hut was built in 1876(I think) obviously over the years it has had repairs etc. I dont know much about the shed.
    The grass there use to be plowed up and there were chook pens and milking/stable areas.

    Dad and Gus arriving

    Putting up the hill while I am waiting behind to lock the gate

    going across one of the creek crossings

    due to the heavy rain we received not long ago there was a landslide.
    after moving a few rocks and kicking the ground the series one went over no problem.
    The drop off down the bank is very steep and long

    Both Dad and I had an absolute blast with Gus out.

    You certainly take some great photos Tony. And a beautiful part of the world to take photos of.

    Thanks Dave, I cant take all the credit though as the subject(Gus's 107) makes the photos a lot better.
    We are quite lucky to have access to the neighbouring properties.
    I am hoping when I have finished uni for summer(jan 24th) to go out again and take more photos and explore some more
