20120227 VIC Victoria Boarder Cann River

20120227 Yeaaa were in Victoria and parked up on Cann River in a caravan park $10 without power.  We noticed heaps of bikes coming into Victoria and at Cann River Service Station.  We had to walk to the pub to book into the park, so we had a couple of beers when we meet had some guys returning home from Philip Island, now we know why all the bikes.  Watched Julia Gillard on the news boosting about her win over Kevin Rudd 71 to 31 (poor Ruddy baby). 

Des's Bro's
We put up the awning to cooked outside then it started raining and the wind picked so down comes the awning.  Theirs that sound of the Bell Birds again, do you think we could see them, not on your life but you could certainly here them.  The one good think about these parks are the nice hot shower and I can finally wash my hair.

Cann River

20120228 We woke to another miserable day so we decided to take advantage of the facility's, Des moved the van and stole some free power while I did some washing, arr bonus theirs a power point so I can recharge my laptop and update my blog while waiting for the washing. 

We departed Cann River to visit Bemm River at Marlo for some fishing, apparently you can catch lots of Flat head & bream, that right you have to obtain a license for social fishing (what a crock of shit) besides, it's cold, windy and raining, bloody Victoria. 

The road to Marlo on Bemm River was very pretty a rain Forest look and the majority of the road was a reddish color.

The tine town of Marlo a great fishing spot if you have a boat, which we don't.









I wonder what the Greene's think of this,
do you get the feeling this area has a problem
with Feral Dogs and Foxes.


Just an old Jetty that took my fancy but there were heaps of fish skeletons everywhere so that could be proof that there are fish here.


Nop not staying here Lake Entrance looks good though.

20190825 Qld Charleville Rock Pool

Image
20190825 About 12ks before Charleville there’s a Rock Pool that was once a quarry and in the summer months a great place to take a dip and cool off but now it’s a great place to camp while sitting around a fire with good friends enjoying and cold ale and what better reason but to catch up with Dick. We joined Dick for a run into town for supplies and stopped to check out the Tower Mural, featuring the youths of Charleville intertwined through sports, painted in a 3D style around a tall, narrow 30-metre-high tower. Our camp for the next few days with Dick’s music blasting out the camp and yes, we had to turn it down because it was keeping a baby awake, next time I’m putting up a sign “NO KIDS ALOUD”. The boys go in search of wood and drags back a large log, now that’s the way to do it Dick. Sit on the log Dick, so I can get a photo, ya sure that will never happen, spoil sport. Gee! somebody looks pleased with himself; anyone would think he cooked it, I guess it

20150809 WA Moora, New Norcia, Bindoon

Image
20150809  The town of Moora came from the Aboriginal name 'Moora' which means blowfly and is situated in one of the most interesting wildflower areas of the state and is the largest town between Geraldton and Perth, well! all I can say is, all the other towns must be bloody small.  The rolling hills on the way to Moora are a blaze with the vivid yellow flowers of canola and are just breath taken and apparently it smells like cabbage. Canola is grown for its seed which is crushed for the oil used in margarine, cooking oil, and a few more. The properties of the oil fits with the current view that human health is better served by increasing the intake of mono and poly unsaturated fats in place of saturated fats The Drovers Inn was built in 1909 and stands on the intersection of the town. The historical buildings are what gives this town it's charm. The New Norcia Benedictine Community is the official title of the group of Roman Catholic monks who have

20210421 NSW Standing Stones to Tenterfield

Image
20210421 We woke to a 1 degree bloody freezing morning, thank god we have a diesel heater, we meet a couple who came in late yesterday afternoon who didn't have a heater at all, stuff that. Des decided to go back to Glen Innes and find the Australian Standing Rocks, as they are called, not Stonehenge as I thought so I set google map for the site and within 10 minutes good old Google guided us in the correct direction. The Stones were created in 1991/92 and the stones commemorate all Celtic people who helped pioneer Australia. The Stones acknowledge the contribution to Australian culture made by people from the Celtic nations of Scotland, Ireland, Cornwall, Wales, the Isle of Man, Brittany, Asturias and Galicia. Look! is that a little leprechaun roaming the grounds .😏 The Ancient Celts were farming people who lived across Europe and the British Isles around 2600 years ago and raised stones as calendars to mark the change of seasons to help indicate when they should sow and harvest.
