A new landmark..

Stanthorpe now has a BIG Thermometer - in the time-honoured Aussie tradition of building BIG things eg pineapples, apples, fish, mango, crayfish, bananas, prawns, motor-mower etc. This one is actually quite classy (not a common theme with BIG things!) and is nicely positioned in the park which follows the creek through town.

I agree it is very classy, looks better when it reads minus 7, haha :))

Ha, a cool place to sit! 😉😀

[FBailey]

What a great feature!

So, is it accurate? And is that a person sitting in the bottom? It's a nice feature for the park- good shot!

That's the first Big whatever I actually like, not to mention having a purpose.

@hermann We didn't realize it was there until recently. It's a great thing - so well done! And in a good spot too.

@casablanca That's Anna reclining in it - of course! :)

[Rob Z]

@rosie00 It does look like it was made for it - Anna said it was quite comfy!

[Rob Z]

@olivetreeann Thanks Ann - we believe it's accurate - but it's only been there a short while. It's in a really good spot near the creek. And yes that is a person - that's our daughter Anna...

@golftragic So true Marnie - it's pretty nice - and useful too. The visitors always want to know how cold it is!

[Marnie]

@robz I hate being cold!!!
