Richmond ramble

This Monday was the day selected for a "Richmond ramble" but the weather was so bad I thought it wouldn't go ahead. But I was wrong.

Richmond is a picturesque old town about 25km from Hobart, full of historic relics like the oldest bridge and the oldest gaol in the country. Just the place for my local church group to have a day out.

I consulted the local guidebook.

We saw the bridge in the distance.

The river was very pleasant, though we were nearly deafened by the crickets.

Not forgetting the art galleries.
