You Know You're in Dalby When....

- You're sweating your face off one minute... and then

- Running outside to pull the laundry off the line just as a storm breaks.

- Our tin roof crackles and groans with the heat.

- Policemen come home to their "misses" for lunch.

- The most attractive girl in town is a bogan that works at the drive-thru beer mart (bogan: Australian version of (excuse the stereotype) "white trash."

- Everything is closed on Sundays (that is actually most of Australia)

- The river has flood markers up and down the banks and yet there has still been no action to try and contain the inevitable flooding.

- The people are incredibly sweet and could talk to you for days.

- I wake up every morning to the sound of a rooster crowing...

- and go to sleep every night to the sounds of cicadas.

I returned to Dalby on Sunday and I am just getting back into the swing of things. I really do enjoying writing and I am going to try and write more and expand my subject areas so look out for more to come soon. Until next time... xox
