hobart walls

digging

last week i was walking through hobart when i noticed this digging going on at the site of the old hobart myer building. how exciting. i love this sort of thing - it makes me think about the way hobart used to be. arctas have done some amazing archaeological work in tassie, i wonder what they will find this time.  

speaking of history bits; i watched "who's been sleeping in my house" on abc last week. the episode was about a house in battery point. i thought it was fascinating. it will be on iview for a little while longer so there is still come to catch it.

exploring - low head

whilst exploring the north of the state recently bb & i stumbled across the little town of low head. this gorgeous spot is situated at the mouth of the tamar river about 5km north of george town. the town has a lovely lovely lighthouse as well as a pilots station which you can stay at. bb & i thought it was beautiful...i would love to visit again on a sunny summers day. 

this old house

i drive past this abandoned house everyday.  it really intrigues me.  i wonder who used to live there and what its like inside. even though he looks a little scary i have the feeling he has had a good life.
