The Small Town Life

Just a half a mile from the the railroad tracks...(you can get anything you want at Alice's Restaurant)


Or you end up at the town of Pingelly.

For Wheatbelt Western Australia it's a big town. A TWO pub town.

With every thing you need.

The busiest spot in town was the combined antique store and local cafe where I met the MOST INTERESTING customer who was so excited to find the perfect dress, even if she couldn't get the poor old shopkeeper to get it to zip up.

With a piece of the best caramel square slice (think thick cakey pastry crust filled with sweet caramel) and a flat white from the cafe, I sat outside and watched the utes towing sheep drive by from Woolorama.

 And if the pubs, cafes, and second hand shops aren't enought for you (what kind of person are you?!), you can stroll through the war memorial to take some pictures for the local Photo Club


But this is only one small town, with so many more to see...

  1. Looks like west Texas! I love to explore old towns like this. And just look at the architecture (nothing like New England); all it needs is a railroad and station! Just wonder when the Stage Coach-West had it's last customer?
