We're also getting some rain today so while in Wollongong (in the car) decided to check the bike access to this (you better hurry or I'll get the tag).
I really like this life size bronze monument to our coal mining history. It depicts today's miner helping one from the 18th century.
To my mind a reversal of life, inasmuch as the 18th century miners union started the fight for safer working conditions enjoyed today.

Nice tribute it must be worth a few $'s

I took a shot but sadly deleted of the brass plaque attached behind. SAD
I think it was paid for by the miners union and the women's committee?

I find it very moving to study and think about the symbolism.
I had (now deceased) relatives who had been seriously injured in coal mines back in the bad old days.
 
That would be a great photo Kevin. Now go get it. :y2:

If the rain clears up (think it will, stars shining bright just now) and I get up early enough I will.
It's in front of the library in the middle of town so will have to do it early before too many pedestrians are about.

I actively play a couple of tag games kev, and I've found that generally if you give pedestrians a chance to jump out of the way before you get to them they will.
Ya have to keep an eye on the older ones tho,there not quite as quick.:y16:
 
Sunny morning with a rain storm on the mountain slowly moving in my direction.
Took a quick blast into Wollongong to get the shot.

I hope you're happy because on the ride home the storm and I were on a collision path.
I was in the sun and a black wall of water was determined to drown me.
Got to about 750 mtrs from home when the storm won the contest.
