In the Pilbara, knee high termite mounds grow in a few days, sometimes in the middle of unsealed roads. Trucks just mow them down, a huge bang as the front axle buldozes them. Forty degrees is normal, 45 common, 50 sometimes. Having a shower anytime other than late evening is a problem. The cold water is too hot to stand under.
Yeah, i've seen some of those termite mounds in the middle of dusty outback roads and many with flat tops but you simply can't avoid them all especially is there is oncoming traffic. No doubt temps get hot 🥵 in the Pilbara and those copper pipes would heat up for sure but think of the money you'd be saving on hot water heating. If heat is a negative in the Pilbara, the scenery is certainly a positive. I like the Pilbara region 👍
@@ourtraveldiaries247 I agree, i enjoy reading your descriptions, the add to the viewing experience, Thanks for sharing and i look forward to seeing more of the sights you visit. 👏👏🙂
Its the way it happens now😥. The Jeedamya Property was brough by the Chinese Shangai CRED company which also owns some of the properties around Jeedamya.
Hmm... I agree with you @FeralDingo123. I did a google search on Shangai Cred, they have some interesting bedfellows; eg: Port Adelaide FC, & Gina Rinehart. Other stations purchased at the same time as Jeedamya were Melita and Kookynie Stations all previously owned by Mr Burton. The price paid for all three was a little more than beads and blankets at the princely sum of $2 Million. Interestingly they also bought 2 stations in the Kimberley, Yakka Munga and Mt Elizabeth Stations. All that said, who is at fault, the Buyer or the Seller??? 💰🤑💸
Yeah vandals are a exterminated if caught, but termites have it more stuff than broken windows , boards torn of to inspect how severe rot was , terminal I guess
@@ourtraveldiaries247 They're why Queenslanders were built on stilts. The first buildings there were conventional, built on the ground out of wood, and they were ravaged by termites.
It looks like a combination of termite damage, damage for termite inspection as @holdenbrougham1056 mentioned but it certainly looks as if vandals have also played a part. Difference between termites doing damage and vandals is termites do it for natural survival while vandals do it for un-natural pleasure. @deaddoll1361 I wasn't aware Queenslander houses were built for termite protection, thanks for the info. I thought it was for cooling so the breeze flowed underneath the house and also so the home could be levelled on rocky or uneven ground. That said I like looking at an original Queenslander home, the wide verandahs in particular. 🐜🐜
i guess we have three types of vandals, citizen vandals and govt vandals and greedy corporation vandals. It is sad that pieces of Australia are being sold off. Grrr 😠
yes, it would be nice to see this restored to its former glory but who would do it. If it was still in the hands of DBCA the Govt could use a restoration like this to train up young kids in building skills. 🏚
😂Yes can't seem to avoid them. I been to some remote places that takes time and effort to get to only to find someone has already vandalized the site/place 🤨😖

Big cattle companies buy up all the smaller properties around them and let the homesteads rot . It is just acres on a property portfolio now .

Sometimes you gotta wonder
Yeah vandals are a exterminated if caught, but termites have it more stuff than broken windows , boards torn of to inspect how severe rot was , terminal I guess
@@holdenbrougham1056 No doubt Termites can be very destructive.🐜

The great south land of dreams gone dry
There is a sadness in visiting places where dreams have fallen through😞
I see you have vandals there too.
😂Yes can't seem to avoid them. I been to some remote places that takes time and effort to get to only to find someone has already vandalized the site/place 🤨😖
yeah most of us go travelling to enjoy the sights not destroy them, but seems vandals like outback travel too. Grrr...😠
