    You can certainly see the money in Bendigo. All the magnificent buildings and gardens. The welcome stranger is the largest gold nugget found.

    Wow Deb you moved to the sticks! That's a really big move. I hope your settling in well. It's a bit different isn't it not having the shops so close. I'd love to move back to the country some day. I hope you enjoyed you Bendigo trip. I've only been there maybe twice. But never stayed and got to look around. Love your dress too❤❤

    Holtermann Nugget
    Found near the base of a tree on a slope leading to Bulldog Gully. The nugget weighed 241 lb 10 oz, but had to be broken into three pieces because there were no scales large enough to weigh it.
