I think Oatlands is charming too, I hope more people pop in and give the town a little boost after reading your post. <BR/><BR/>Did you know the church there was designed by the same person as westminster abbey?!blackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07816426807504325287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16945829.post-69005361235816992652008-08-21T08:59:00.000+10:002008-08-21T08:59:00.000+10:00Oooh lovely!

For a long time my husband and I have been talking about a Tassie getaway - we're just across Bass Straight in Melbourne and I can't believe we haven't managed it yet!<BR/><BR/>I particularly love winter drives to out-of-the-way towns - will have to keep this area in mind.<BR/><BR/>BTW - I love your blog header.

In the olden days it was a wriggly windy road and we would look out for the topiary trees. I miss the small towns that are all bypassed by the new highway. We would stop and pick mushrooms and wander about the small towns. Thank you for sharing your day!!! It has brought back very happy memories!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16945829.post-76538428703174397132008-08-15T11:30:00.000+10:002008-08-15T11:30:00.000+10:00What a lovely trip that must have been!

There is a small town about 35 miles from here that we drive to often with the girls, and we make sure to stop at a very small local farmer's market to support them because of their kind attitude and because I think that what they're doing with supporting their family and community with the farm is pretty amazing. :)<BR/><BR/>Hugs<BR/>KristinKRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03378706314614555542noreply@blogger.com
