Popular village up in the hills. Lots of green stuff after all the rain.

Stopped in there for lunch

You'll see that all the houses are white. That's the law here :)

Mate of mine does a thing called 'tuck pointing' and works on many old and grand houses. Currently working in Mada Vale and found this old photo. Recognise the young men in it?
