Queensland Back The Mecca for Big Things hunters. From South to North (in no particular order). The Big Boot Brisbane The Big Apple III or IV? I drove past this thing a dozen times thinking, oh yeah, I'll get it next time.

More Big Bowling Pins Capalaba (One at Ipswich too)
Note along with golf balls and chainsaws, bowling pins are no longer sought after. The Big Golf Bag and Buggy Karalee The Big Dairy Cows Yamanto (Brisbane)
The Big Apple Stanthorpe (now retired)
Then an excellent run along the Warrego Highway between Hatton Vale and Gatton revealed all these hidden treasures (I wonder how many more strips of road are this rich in Big Things??) The Big Red Elephant sensational, how come no one's heard of this one?

Lucinda. No bull.
After meeting Rob and Shannon at the Big Mango, one of the best presented big things I must say, (see diary) we have formed a special bond of Big Thing hunters now officially known as Bigguns. I have had great help in spotting some of the tougher buggers along the way. Those that I didn't know about and probably would have missed as they've got good eyes are labeled as such. Credit where credit is due. The Big Mango Bowen The Big Brolga 2 Townsville
The Big Piece of Sugar Cane The Big Watermelon Slice Both of these spotted by Rob and Shannon Home Hill and Bambaroo respectively.
