Description

Welcome to another of Dubbo's street art pieces.

This artwork is Sir Sidney Kidman by Poncho Army. Known as 'The Cattle King', Kidman owned a LOT of land in Australia and was Australia's largest cattle producer till..... his company might still be!

This is a virtual geocache - there is no physical geocache container to be found. Rather, to log a find for this virtual, you will need to take a photo of yourself or one of your team at this artwork and answer the question found in this listing. Being part of a street art series, I encourage you to be creative in the photo you take for this. I have placed one example in the gallery which you can copy if you can't come up with any fresh ideas.

If you like this virtual geocache, please give it a thumbs up with your comment.

There is some art work in obscure places in Dubbo. Mrs Shifter has recently read a book about Sidney Kidman and he had a very interesting life and some very good ideas.
Thanks No_Tomorrow

The last for us today and we were finally getting the message that a lot of these are so close they can be walked to easily from the last. Especially this one, you can't get much closer to the last than this!!!
We travelled the Kidman Highway a few years ago and learnt a lot about the man from doing the caches along it.
Thanks, looking forward to doing more of your caches in a couple of days.

#GA1641 - 14:49; Day 30 of the Alice Mega Road Trip with Sol de lune, albida33 and fitzy_1965. Today was a shorter run from Nyngan to Nevertire, Warren, Trangie, Narromine and on to Dubbo before heading to Parkes for the night. Sdl and I decided to spend the rest of the day in and around Dubbo and left our fellow cachers in Narromine. After picking up a few trigs around the outskirts, we were now headed into suburbia and picking up a few more caches, including a stack of virtuals. This was a quick find once we finally made it to GZ after a bit of a wander. TFTC No_Tomorrow Very HappyClan Cerberus

Found with LuckyL10n while on the way home from our Alice Springs/Darwin road trip....

Walked and drove around town gathering the required photos and enjoyed most of the art works. Some were to my taste, some weren't, but then that's art isn't. Its about what we see...

Anyway, a neat way to spend a couple of hours, which included a lunch stop...so all good and thanks No_Tomorrow.

Arrived in Dubbo today for a couple of days on our way to the Event in Alice Springs and spotted this series. Grabbed a couple of them this afternoon and enjoyed the artwork showcased here.
