Off again, now in search of silo art - went to Colbinabbin , a tiny joint with some silo art
Image

And as it turned out, a great little pub with a delicious local beer on tap and a top menu- if we didn’t have accommodation already booked we would have settled in for the night

Image

Saw an FB having a drink from a dam on the way there as well -

Mate that weather in Ballarat looked like a heat wave for them from my memory :crazy: :crazy: :crazy:

The Southern Cross flag should be flown in Ballarat it is the Eureka Stockade flag not sure when the Rebels (floggs) or the unions turned it into something else entirely and yes I understand it is a rebel flag :roll:
