A bit of a guess but is it Katherine Gorge?

Not NT Sheba, so not Katherine Gorge either. Go west young woman and man!

Oh, and Sheba - lots of little freshies in those waters - bitey, bitey.

And that's where it is - loved the tour, the white rocks - a wonderful area - well worth a visit.

This is one of the freshies on the tour!

I'm with you! A fabulous area, we loved it too. 

Now I know my photo isn't very good quality but I'm hoping it's good enough to see if anyone knows where I saw this shearer?

I'll take a guess and say "Shear Outback" in Hay.

 

 

 

 

Just a by the by - Loved Geikie Gorge when we were there in 2015.  Did the morning National Parks tour and the afternoon tour with the aboriginal gentleman,  That tour was a real highlight for us.  Thoroughly recommend it to all.  Cheers.

You are absolutely correct. The reason for the poor quality photos is my husband has beautiful photos on the computer but they are too big to post and I don't know how to downsize so I had to email them to my iPad and post them on here. Oh long story sorry but I'm glad you picked it smile . Last time I mentioned the size problem,  someone offered a link to show me how to downsize and it contained a virus. Not keen to repeat that!! 

Anyway! Your turn biggrin

Probably not, but it looks like an area at the Causeway, between Yeppoon and Emu Park. [Qld.] during the week.

Must be Lake Broadwater NP. Stayed there for a couple of days on our travels last year but did not recognise the photo.

Didn't take long Lorraine,you are correct.

I had a feeling this has been posted before, but it must have been some time back.

Thanks Brenda & Alan, we were close to here a few months ago, but made a detour, so did not get to Carcoar, BUT Google helped me all the same.

Has anyone met this family? Where are they and what is their story?IMG_20180317_135611.jpg

Gwynnie, Not Mt Bullet, but you are in the right state.

Welcome Wombat 40. I hope you enjoy our game. To post a picture, you need to have won the right, by identifying the last picture posted
