It looks like a desert these days, on that side of the new highway. <br />.<br />Hanging Rock Road is still there, as before - it is the "Old Hume Highway".<br />Great spot for Grey Kangaroos and Wallabies.<br />I often stop off along that road, to have a break (and walk around in the bush) on the way home from Canberra.<br />Interesting that you know that area well.<br />Cheers<br />DenisDenis Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10031115992910569116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19288377.post-50810642926419310242010-01-08T22:25:50.157+11:002010-01-08T22:25:50.157+11:00Hmmm seems like a fascinating place.

My father helped construct and wire the Penrose Park Monastery just out of Berrima. I have been dying to return as an adult.Sebastianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17872602006875393546noreply@blogger.com
