Some pictures of our farm "Tanderra" at Maryborough.
Tanderra is an aboriginal word for place of rest.. Ha Ha.

cold, well by our standards anyway.
You can see the hayshed, full of baled hay in the
background and just in front of that our main water
tank, 150,000 gallons capacity, on the left the
machinery shed/workshop is nearly finished, but I
have not built the 3 car garage yet, it will replace
the old ramshackle one on the right.

most backbreaking things I ever tried, Shearing.

blossom on it I have ever seen on a wattle tree.

start of the hot weather, but it was a nice feeling knowing
we would not have to buy in fodder the next year.

one shows me mowing a crop of oats to bale for hay, so it
was meant to go before the hay carting one..... oh well.

What a great name for the farm!!!
That hayshed is packed!!!!
I've never sheared a sheep but I have a friend who raises sheep. They have a family farm and everyone pitches in to help with the shearing.
That's my first Golden Wattle. It's beautiful.
Hauling hay ... brings back memories!!! Some pleasant ... some not.
Great post!
