After breaky, we set off with our mornos and lunch to do the last two legs of the Scultpure Trail. These were all unfenced roads, so we encountered lots of roaming cattle, a few kangaroos and emus.
We missed a few scultpures, but managed to find the one we missed yesterday. There is a lot of work involved in sculpting them considering one lady has done them all. She must have a very large and dverse collection of scrap metals. She certainly has an artistic, imaginitive eye, as all sculptures are very life-like. The two legs were dirt roads and in very good condition despite the recent rains. We visted Gray Rock which is a sandstone outcrop that was a stopping point for Cobb & Co in the 1870s. There was a hotel there which served as a changing point for the horses. You can probably Google it for more information, if you're interested. We also visited the Healing Circle which is an ancient sacred healing circle which is connected to six others in the world - Japan, Tibet, Madagascar, Peru, Turkey and the USA. We missed four sculptures - Bush spider, Possum in a gum, Brolgas, and Where’s Wally. Something to look forward to next time we visit.
We were home in time for lunch and then Wendy did some work whilst Greg went for a 27 km ride.
The rest of the afternoon and evening was spent blogging and relaxing.
