    Well you can put it back now ...

    Old tag ... was the "Think big" project of 1958. The Roxburgh dam.

    New tag ... The remains of a town devastated by a natural disaster ... and was never rebuilt. One railways shed and a memorial to the town that was, is all that remains ...

    (behind the scene) had cabin fever I was told to go for a or else so like a good boy did as I was told
    so me & Off-spring head sth east & picked up tag & go to move it to..... took one look at the wall of water coming our way & headed for cover, got back over the hill & left the rain behind will place new tag later

    second pic with the memorial between bikes shows the three flood levels 1st one 1983, 2nd 1978 & 3rd 1980 which made the flood 2.8 mtrs deep in the area
