Adelong Gold Fields and the return of the Dog on the Tucker Box.

Hi lovelies, It is a few days since we went paid a visit to the Adelong Falls Gold Mine outside Tumut, but I have been a bit under the weather so only sharing now. The town of Adelong is just west of Tumut and is a lovely little town.  We visited the Gold Mine ruins and had a wander around and check out the creek and the ruins.   A lot of work has been done to make the ruins safely accessible for visitors.  Walking tracks and signed areas make it easy to find things. It was great to walk around and check out some of the working of the days when the gold mine was a working operation.  The site office. One of the water wheels. The Managers house and garden. The furnace and the chimney in the background.  They are a long way from each other. The river was really pretty and a little chilly. We had a great time and I would recommend it as a place to visit. We left Tumut on Saturday and traveled through Gunda...
