LOL! No Paul! QLD is a very big place. I am about 9 hours drive north-west of Toowoomba.
Not sure of the small town you are referring to though... We have ALOT of sunflowers around here, and lots of cotton too (looks like snow when it is all in flower! lol)... My boys love to collect the dead flower heads from the side of the road and eat the seeds (sunflower seeds)... I have a wedding in April, the date of which was chosen specifically by the couple to be during the height of the sunflower season, and I just can't wait! Can you imagine a bride in white dress, with deep blue skies, and bright yellow sunflowers... Beautiful stuff! tan. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Paul Stenquist" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, February 10, 2004 1:15 PM Subject: Re: *istD Manufacture > > On Feb 9, 2004, at 9:49 PM, Tanya Mayer Photography wrote: > > > I am in > > Central, hot, dry, western QLD, no where near a beach or ocean (unless > > you > > count the cattle troughs...), and closer to Brisbane than I am to > > Cairns!
