My place in time # 87 - a car number plate.
My place in time is a local area history project set by Kell at Blackcurrant Photography
The day before Boggy went back to work after the christmas/new years break we went for a four wheel drive through the Canunda National Park to Carpenter Rocks.
We had a few stops along the way before dropping into the Tavern for a drink and driving back on the bitumen, through Tantanoola.
It really is a spectacular place to explore.
Some natives we scare from the track not long after we turn off, we did see a snake too, but he was too quick to pose for a photo. |
It took us around three hours to get Carpenter Rocks with a few stops |
We stop off at Whale Rock and walk to the beach |
Whale Rock. Can you see it? |
Our next stop is Number 2 rocks, here we are on top of the cliffs |
and on the beach |
The small bay is protected by reef, some spectacular wave crashing |
The road gets a bit lumpier towards Carpenter Rocks |
Wrecked in 1997 at Red Rock Bay, Carpenter Rocks. Not. going. anywhere. |
The Landy, we only seasonally register it. Boggy uses it to tow the boat, which he sold last week. He's on the look out for a smaller dinghy. |
Wow, amazing pictures. What a spectacular part of the world you live in.
