A Country Drive

We went for a drive to Eidsvold yesterday past private properties along a dirt road. It was so pretty. A different view of the dam from the other side. We were up high. The view is not done justice by the photos. There was so many dead trees. This dam was basically empty in 2023 after prolonged drought. The trees are dead from lack of rain and also being high Up and the moisture runs of. Then the trees cannot make sap so insects kill the trees as well. The dam was completed in 1969. It was drought and empty in 1970.

In Sapphire I got myself a bucket of dirt before I left. I washed out some on Friday. Few small sapphire bits. Mostly green. Have not found blue yet.

The murals are in Monto in the main street.Read more
