Late last week it was a gorgeous Autumnal day - about 18C with a slight crispness to the air, so I took a drive 1.5 hrs north to the lovely Clare Valley - one of the top wine-growing regions of South Australia.
Won't you join me on a brief tour? ......
This was the view looking back towards the Mt Lofty Ranges
.... pity about the pylons !
This pub was established in 1860
There was an abundance of new lambs
Mintaro - former slate mining town with a delightful historic "feel"
Attractive entry to one of the B&B's in the town
The Teapot Inn - sadly now on the market, but a visit there a few years back with a friend for Devonshire tea was a charming experience
I bet the walls within this homestead have some stories to tell !
Stockpiling feed for possible harsh days to come
A tragic story behind this headstone no doubt...
A wide brown land indeed . . .

Lovely photos and a part of South Australia that I love. Might have to make another trip there, your photos are making me want to go there again.
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful series, the wine country area is lovely. I love all the critters, the lambs are adorable. The Teapot Inn is charming and I love the wagon. The leaves are so colorful and pretty. Beautiful photos and post. Have a happy day and great week ahead.
Temperature at 18 C is comfortable for me, must be lovely place.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing beautiful and attractive photos.
Love to read your story telling.
Wine country in the fall is pretty. I like the old homestead. Thanks for the tour! It brought back good memories of my years living in SA.
ReplyDeleteI miss road trips. I enjoyed these images.
