Aberfoyle Park (South Australia)

Aberfoyle Park is set in the north-west corner of Happy Valley on the northern doorstep to the McLaren Vale, birthplace of South Australia’s billion dollar wine industry. Pioneer settler John Reynell planted the first vines on the Fleurieu Peninsula in 1838, within two years of the first British migrants wading ashore at Glenelg, just a short drive to the north of the residential suburb of Aberfoyle Park.

Kalbarri (Western Australia)

Stunningly beautiful is an accurate way to describe the country around Kalbarri, which lies at the mouth of the Murchison River where it flows into Gantheaume Bay, 166km north of Geraldton and 589km north of Perth.

Kalbarri is a long way from Perth. Western Australia must be one big state. Does it compare in size to any US state?

Inglis, Florida

In November 2001, Mayor Carolyn Risher issued a proclamation banning Satan from Inglis. The proclamation began:

"Satan, ruler of darkness, giver of evil, destroyer of what is good and just, is not now, nor ever again will be, a part of this town of Inglis."

It ended:

"As the mayor of Inglis, duly elected by the citizens of this town, and appointed by God to this position of leadership, I proclaim victory over Satan, freedom for our citizens, and liberty to worship our Creator and Heavenly Father, the God of Israel. I take this action in accordance with the words of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, as recorded in Matthew 28:18–20 and Mark 16:15-18."

This controversial proclamation garnered national and world attention. The American Civil Liberties Union accused the town of what they alleged was a clear violation of the separation of church and state. In addition, the proclamation was placed on wooden posts that were installed at the entrances to the town on public right of way. After much controversy and the threat of lawsuits, the town later rescinded its proclamation, and the mayor reimbursed the town for the use of government stationery. The wooden posts were relocated to private property.
