Happy Stonework Saturday to everyone. Have a great weekend.
Memorial to commemorate the 2000 mile expedition of Burke and Wills in 1860 from Melbourne in the south to the Gulf of Carpentaria in the north. At that time most of inland Australia had not been explored by non indigenous people and was mostly unknown to the European settlers. Both men perished on the return journey and of the 19 others who accompanied them, 7 died and only one made the return journey alive.
