Harwood NSW

From Harwood Island, one of the 100 islands in the Mighty Clarence NSW.

This bridge lifts to allow yachts to go further upriver to the City of Grafton.
Be sure to visit Susan  here for Outdoor Wednesday, and here for Watery Wednesday.



"Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,and your dominion 
endures through all generations" Psalm 145: 13

Have a Blessed week. Hugs - Jan

We have a suburb called Grafton here. And we have a bridge by that name too. Won't be surprise it is the same person they named them after.

This bought back memories, haven't been to Grafton for many years either. The last time I was there it was festival time-very nice

Thanks for your interest and comments. This bridge was completed in 1966, and I remember crossing on the ferry. As it is the main highway, traffic used to back up quite a long way, and it was quite a wait.
