the stockmen,s last bed.
i took this photo of keppel hut while my wife and two children warmed them self by a large and cozy fire in the humble but very pleasant hut.when i returned to the warmth of the fire a glass of wine and a roast dinner awaited me .as i sat and enjoyed my tea i wondered how it would have been for the keppel,s who built this hut early last century i wondered of the conversations and meals that took place around this fire when the stockmen came in from a hard days riding. mm sorry im still in exhibition mode .it has been very successfull.. this is in the yarra rangers N.P.
