There’s No Town Like Snowtown
On our way back from the Australian Outback we just had to make a stop at Snowtown. Ever since a whole bunch of bodies had been found in acid tanks in the old bank building, Snowtown has suffered somewhat of a stigma.
Yet, even though it was a beautiful day and the surrounding area is stunning, I kid you not, the sun refused to shine on Snowtown.
While they have about 500 inhabitants, they seem to have a rather strong need for praying. The only people that we did see where at the pup though. If you come across a tourists out there, the locals know why you’re around and the looks where far from inviting.
At least Shirly’s Country Garden provided a bit of color in this bleak place.
Funny how circumstances can make faux flowers look amazing. Beauty is everywhere.
Happy Roadtripping!
On the Way
never heard of snowtown. hope it gets better there. sad history and resentful present it sounds like.
I like the old veranda roof, how it stands out strong as a taught umbrella. I will have to look up the story of Snowtown. So sad, so strange.
