When in Dalby (with pictures!)

Observations of the morning:
People here haven't gotten the memo yet that smoking is bad... young and old, everyone seems to be on the cancer stick train.

On a more fun note:
I ride Todd's bike a lot and the abundance of wildlife is amazing. Yesterday as I rode by the river I heard these little (actually scarily large) guys scamper up each tree I passed.
Goanna/ Lizard things

On my walk this morning I noticed this:

Apparently, Dalby originated as a crossing over the Myall Creek from 1841. The first public building was erected in 1846 and the swampy little town slowly became the less-swampy but still relatively wet town that it is today!
The river I run along

The lovely flood markers!

  1. I love the little history lesson and wonder if there is an official town historian around now??
