29 January '06 Part 2 - Bungendore Show |
 The
old engines are a regular feature, put together by a local club.
Lovingly restored engines putter and give those who stop, a sense of how
farm life would have depended on these slow moving pistons. |
 I
asked this boy if I could take his picture and he gave this smile. He
then asked me to
help find his mum and dad who were 'lost' nearby. |
 Michael
Biscotti had installed a glass display gelati freezer in a trailer, his
mobile shop. He's distributing for a Sydney company Pure Gelato, a
premium product. Even the Italian Embassy think so. |
 This
girl certainly liked hers. |
 More
country faces. |

 |
 Serious
stock discussions. |
 And
these kids where serious about looking after their parent's winning coloured sheep. The were
giving them names and couldn't decide on one. I offered the name Patch,
for an appropriately marked one which went down well. |
 When
it's hot, have a sleep in the shade. |
 If
dogs look like their owners, can cows? |
 "Damn
I won the dog when I really wanted a hat" |
 But
is it art? |
 The
livestock judging is a great place to watch tensions between competitors
and judges. |
 This
sequence tells it's own story. |

Another great Show day. Thanks to everyone who helped and organised. I'll
be back next year of course. And I'll get to the show girl crowning in
time. I know you miss it. |
