Ronda.

Lovely name and quite a scenic town.

Here's my view of Ronda's part of Rosi's Carmen, the 1984 definitive film version.
Please correct me if I've made an error with any and feel free to advise me of any more.

Rosi's Carmen

An old film favourite of mine, when I saw a blu-ray copy at the right price I grabbed a copy.
Anyway as a frail old man now I love to travel via earth/street google and have a habit of trying to place things I see, sometimes quite difficult due to a lack of clues and Carmen wasn't handing out too many.
Anyway for those with any slight interest like I have a bit of sight seeing can be done via street google about the areas I've marked and changes have certainly happened in the past 28 years.

First up Carmona.

One for Todd and Linda.

You mentioned being a bit excited about this game coming up so we're having a look, though if ESPN as per usual cram many more ads in, the remote control will get another workout.
We like the lack of advertising on the player's outfits, our sport could learn from that.
Neither team has *must* support them colours but white always works well with red, so that'll do.
The blue team is too dark, I suppose a generation ago it was lighter but the latest gloomy generation of designers moved it closer to their desired black, at least it seems all Aussie designers do that, left to them we'd never see colour again.

Slowly back down.

It must be a day since more than a speck of rain has fallen and Log creek must have dropped a shin length.

There's practically no headwaters here so why can't the level drop a bit quicker, or why haven't the people who make good money telling us what to do done something about it. It used to drain quicker back in the days we didn't flood from a few showers.

Log creek filling.

The little bit of rain we've had has lifted the water level to the bridge.
The problem for the district is water levels rise but they take way too long to go down again, the mouths of the streams are clogged and being myopic all they can think of for a solution is to raise road levels, of course recent governments have spent all the kitty and that isn't going to happen, so NQ and FNQ get cut off whenever we have a bit of rain.

Plus of course another pic just for fun.

Variety.

This was in a flyer for house siding. I think they could have achieved that much colour variation by changing the colour balance of their camera. Bland is very popular these days.

Jack Spratt.

Grace doesn't like Macadamia nuts but loves Cashews.
Jimmy loves Macadamias but too many Cashews gives him the spews.

This mixture results in a happy couple and an empty packet.
It may surprise many people that the Macadamia is native to Queensland, the only native food that the world regards as palatable, including I suppose Vegemite.
