Roads
We've been traveling over some rather rough roads in the past two days. The road was originally put through in the early 1870’s, to service the gold fields, and was at that time a narrow walking track. Later the track was developed into a road, it was because of this that the Olivevale station was established. The aborigines in the area didn’t approve of Europeans building roads and settling on their land.
The impact back then may have been a bad influence on the environment; Though now it is because of this road I am sitting here in Laura and have access to a post office, where we were able to pick up a parcel, buy a drink in the outback pub and sleep in the caravan park down the road.
