177 - More on Croyden

The info centre @ Croyden
 
As in the previous post Croyden is a fascinating place. Apart from the oldest general store in Queensland, that sell the best lollies, the only pub in town, is the remaining pub of the multitudes of pubs that were in Croyden during the gold rush days. Unfortunately having no competition, the Saturday afternoon drinkies was quite expensive for a country pub.

This entry will be more a pictorial.

Hey there Dave, Shell, Geoff & Hels

Thanks for coming by and leaving your comments, always pleased to see you guys dropping by.

Dave & Shell, we are in Cairns at the moment, after several weeks @ mareeba. Hopefully update the blog in a day ou two. We have been staying at the Rodeo Grounds, really good fun.

Geoff and Hels.....yep we are having a great time and when it's is your turn, no doubt you will enjoy it as well.

To coin a phrase "Life deals you a deck of cards, so if you don't play those cards, you fold."

Very interesting.
