grandpa took us to the clare valley a couple of weeks ago, whilst there we visited this amazing building called martindale hall. it was built back in the day by a twenty three year old sheep farmer who inherited a shipload of money after his father drowned in the river of their property....bit of a sad story that. anyway, this house was owned by three different men and was given over to the state of south australia as a living heirloom. unfortunately we couldn't take photos inside but it was perfectly preserved and there was even music playing inside that had belonged to the last owner! just after i took this photo granda turned around and waved but i missed it! liz
