Homeward bound

 Cousin Grant's street is typical of those in the suburb of Elwood, with lovely trees forming a canopy over the road. Most of the houses  are Edwardian/Federation with many very well maintained and the odd house in really poor condition. Evidently there was a lot of fill used in this area and as a result the occasional house shows major cracking in the walls. Grant says it hasn't stopped them from being sold for over the $1m mark.

 We left early this morning to beat the Melbourne peak hour traffic, are spending tonight in Dubbo and should be home tomorrow.

There was much evidence of the recent flooding around Forbes. There was lots of damage to the Newell Highway and water lying in the low areas forming temporary 'lakes'.

Hope you enjoyed the blog as this will be the last post.
