Low, rounded hills, cloaked in a muted tapestry of grey-green bushland, form a gentle backdrop to the scattered homesteads and paddocks. The air, especially in the early morning, carries a clean, dry scent, a blend of eucalypt and the faint, sweet perfume of sun-baked earth. In the distance, the land unfolds in subtle undulations, hinting at the geological history that shaped this particular corner of Victoria.
