The Lakes

An important road junction between the Great Eastern Highway and the northern-most point of the Great Southern Highway (take this road to York). A trucking stop with garage and restaurant. There are a few houses and farms in the locality

The Lakes - Restaurant

Peering past the phone box is this glimpse of The Lakes Roadhouse restaurant. I wonder how long this place has been here? Seems like an eternity but is always a good place to stop. January 2012

 

The Lakes - Restaurant

And while we're peering, how about peering up the side of the Roadhouse restaurant which here offers an assortment of local newspapers. January 2012

 

The Lakes - Service Station

The road people have just re-aligned the top of Great Southern Highway so it now comes out in a different place. Lots of road-working equipment all around which I have adroitly eliminated in this picture. This is The Lakes Roadhouse and no matter what they do with the roads, many travellers pause on their journeys here. January 2012
