More Museum

More of the Museum in Temora, the last for the time being.  Later on in the year there will be more posts of the museum.

Below is a bed and buggies.

The shearing shed and the stencils that are used for branding.

Old radios used by the Ambulance people in years gone past, plus old telephones.

Below are Ambulances of the past, so many the big shed had a job to hold them all plus they are all different.

Old machinery and so many lawn movers from various years, models and designs.

Pianos, organs all different from years ago, many models  plus speakers below, old radios, tape recorders and the list goes on.

Sewing machines of old  plus all kinds of sewing gear.

Washing machines below, fridges, never seen so many different washing machines from different eras all in one place.

Old tins, some I remember seeing.  If you click on the photos you will see them better.

Below are school desks once used years ago, you can see the inkwell in the middle and I remember the boys used to put our curls into the inkwell if our hair was long enough...yes, I just remember that!

Oh Gosh!

Where does one begin with this magnificent museum in Temora, NSW.
It has just everything in it, it's large and takes a long time to view all the displays.  Never have I seen such items in the museum that I've never seen before, and how wonderful it was to see things from way back in time, some of those things my grandmother used to use and my great-mother, I can just remember the latter :)
Most of the items on show were donated by a family and families.
I'm showing a few photos over a few posts but won't bore you with all of it.

Remember if you wish to view these photos in more detail please click on the photo and it will enlarge.

A typical bedroom way back in time.

Above is a scene inside the building with wedding dresses, crockery you name it, it was there.

The old petrol or gasoline bowser and below is an old operating table.

Above  is a Sauna! 

Below are Steam Engines.

The printing press and an old telephone.

The race horse called Paleface Adios was a harness racing horse who was a pacer throughout the 1970's and early 1980's.  Can remember hearing about the horse back then.

Temora, NSW

Started off with the new blogger for this post all was well but couldn't make my photos larger.  Have send feedback as it's asked for.  Came back to old blogger to make photos larger :)

Just down the road in Temora we came across this poor house, oh dear, to think someone lived in there once and was probably their pride and joy, beautiful homes across the road.

Went to the showgrounds where there is a caravan park within it but certainly not as nice as where we stayed.  Came across this shelter for whatever it's for.

Entry to the Airport and to the right the caravan park.

Sorry about the sun, it was in the wrong place but it was good to have it out.  This is where we parked, we had power.
The building below is an office for the Airport and to the right the showers and toilets.

Love this tree, so healthy.

The below houses are along the drive away from the airport, many of these houses have hangers at the back of them with small planes but I couldn't manage to get a photo.

Aeroplanes in Temora NSW

Photos of the aircraft in the big hanger in Temora.  There are quite a few more than I'm showing.
All these planes still fly. The building is the first one we went into.
The lights are just wonderful inside the hanger changing colour every few minutes.

The town of Windmills, NSW

Another day in Gilgandra, NSW which is known as the town of Windmills.  You just see windmills here and there though.

A couple of pubs in the town.

A Church.

A species of the Boab Tree which holds it's water in the truck.
