After several years of water restrictions our local water supply, Hinze Dam, was finally at 100% and overflowing. You can walk under the spillway and the noise is quite incredible. There are also three viewing holes too.
We went out to the Tudor Rose for our anniversary dinner and as you can see the wedding dress still fits.
The following day was Gai's birthday.

Looking out across the dam from the car park.	Top of the spillway.	Other side of the spillway.	Steps down to the tunnel under the spillway.
From the other side, looking back.	Water flows off down stream into the smaller streams.	Gai about to go under the spillway.	View of the water flowing from above.
The dress still fits.	Pre dinner photo shot.	Alister taking a picture of himself.
Happy Birthday. I wonder what it is ?	A carton of soft drinks ?	I think not. Voucher for books.	Gypsy likes to drink from the fountain.

View of the back of the dam. There are beautiful picnic areas down here.

View from the top of the kiosk area looking back over the water.

View of Pottsville from a water tower. You can see how much mining they have been doing as the hill is disappearing.
