Sippy Downs
We still have not taken possession of our Cruisliner but we only have approximately 5 weeks to wait now, I guess we will have to be patient a little time longer. In the mean time we are 'house and dog sitting' at Sippy Downs. This is quite like a holiday really. We are living in a new area with plenty of new sights to explore. Directly across the road is a park, named Windmill Park. This is quite handy for us to take the dog for a walk each day.
This is the reason for the name of the park, there really is a windmill. I presume this windmill would have been in this very position from a time when there would not have been any houses in the area, other than the original farm house.
The head of the windmill. This unit is in remarkably good condition. The windmill does not fulfil it's original purpose as the pump lift rod has been removed.
Judy and I are travelling far and wide in Australia. Along the way we will post descriptions and photographs of the people we meet and the places we visit. Hope you enjoy it!
