There were certainly an interesting array of vehicles in the parade at the steamfest. Small cars that putted along, right up to very large monstrous vehicles that were frightening – especially if you were in their pathway. I was stunned that some people were walking in and around these vehicles as they were moving. Only…

Melbourne Steamfest
Yesterday my husband and I visited the Melbourne Steamfest in Scoresby. I’d read about it in the local paper and knowing how much my husband loves steam engines, I mentioned it to him.

Nature Blog Carnival posts March 2012

Parks Victoria has a photography competition at Facebook which helps highlights the parks in Victoria. I have five entries in the competition and would love it if you would vote for at least one of them. I entered early in the competition but because there have been so many entries since then mine have missed…
