14 October - Beechworth

Woke up to another beautiful day here in Beechworth. After our usual leisurely breakfast we took a short drive to Woolshed Falls, right in the middle of the local gold mining industry of the 1850's. In the heyday around 125 tonnes of gold was assayed here. The Woolshed falls are quite spectacular and although there was a reasonable amount of water the locals say that they turn positively spectacular after heavy rain.

Even managed to fly the Mavic Mini over to the falls for some video - quite spectacular. 
Given the warm weather the countryside is still green and quite spectacular with wildflowers.

After that a quick ride into town for a nice lunch and then back to our little home away from home.
Over the past few days we've hardly had any wind, and the Lake Sambell here looks beautiful and smooth. Later in the afternoon the light becomes golden and it's time to take a few photos.
Around 7 pm the sun starts to drop behind the trees. The whole park is quiet and the smell of cooking is absolutely mouth watering. Time for a beer and, as the air cools to head inside.
