Statue of Lennie Gwyther and His Horse Ginger Mick in Leongatha, Australia
9-year-old Lennie spent his spare time helping at the family’s farm, and when his father was incapacitated following a serious accident, young Lennie ran the farm until his father could return to work. When asked what he would like as a reward for his efforts, he asked if he could travel from the town of Leongatha in the state of Victoria to see the official opening of the Sydney Harbour Bridge…
World's largest single-span bridge, engineering marvel.
