Ok tonights its a nice big bold red wine to warm us up yep its a colder day today. We rose pretty early due to next doors campers who got up at 6.30, but we both had to go to the Loo so we both were greeted by the biggest red morning sky. Got to love the outback. We went off to see the Stockmans Hall of Fame and had a good few hours rambling thru all the old stockman stuff and we also got to see the horsemans show too. I enjoyed the show as the person doing it wa...

Well pretty much the perfect day in Outback Queensland. The sun shone all day topping out at 23c. In the morning Susie spent time at the school of the air being shown how the kids in Outback Queensland get schooled by various forms of communication and I clambered all over every part of a Boeing 747 -200 and Qantas's first jet, a 1959 Boeing 707-138 at the Qantas Founders Museum on their Platinum tour. We met up at lunch and both spent some of the afternoon in th...

Mike sits so uneasy in the passenger seat and tries ever so hard not to "advise me" of the best wa...

By the way all the water for this town comes from bores and comes out at 50c plus from the tap. Any cold water you need has to sit and cool or go into the fridge. ...

Description of photo = Meat eating ant. Discovered him today and to think I was concerned with kangaroos, emus and wallabies and this is the one I should have been most scared of. He can clean the flesh of of your bones in 2 weeks. That is better than a 2 week detox diet !! Yet again I sit with a full belly of roast beef and veggies from a camp kitchen dinner. Had a good drive from Charleville to here. Full wall to wall blue skies and about 21c. Tonights night sk...
