Your going to love this one, we went for a drive to the Ferguson Valley, and on the corner of Wellington Mill, Wellington Lowden and Ferguson Roads at the roundabout, is the legendary Gnomesville - the home for little people. It seemed to have started as one gnome placed on the area where the roundabout was being built, I'm not sure why but think it was in protest for something. Anyway another gnome turned up then another and so on till there were so many that the shire gave them an area to live by the side of the road. Now you'd think that it would look like a mass of unwanted garden pottery but no... it's turned into a city of contented family groups of gnomes who have come from all around the world and Australia to live. There are thousands of them all spread out in the bushland, people have even built bridges and pathways and the little critters can be found in nooks and crannies all over the place. Then when you think there are no more, you'll find one peeking from behind a tree or through the long grass. It's a place where you have to go see to believe, I took so many photographs of them it was not funny, too many to pop up on here, even those I have chosen to show you do no justice to the amount there were in the camera viewer. You really do need to see it!!!!!
Anyway, enough said..... here is Gnomesville!! oh BTW Bruce felt right at home in amongst them all :)
Bruce felt so tall sitting next to this lot
The ninja's where hiding around the place, we spotted one.
The old fella flew above us all watching the crowd below.
There were a lot of these in between many of the gnome neighbourhoods
