20120923 Qld Cecil Plains-Condamine River

20120923 As we’ve been to Kingaroy many times we restock and left for the Bunya Mt. There's the turn off “Dam” no big rigs aloud, so onto Cecil Plains to camp on the Condamine River only when we arrived the best camp spots were taken and it’s to dry and full of prickles, so we left heading to Millmerran when I noticed a great spot just off the road overlooking the Condamine River. We stayed for a couple of days just lazing around, reading, blogging and uploading photos while Des tried his hand at yabbying with no success, it’s still too cold. 
A drive by photo of these lovely trees in bloom only I don't know what they are.

The lovely scenery on our way to Cecil Plains.

These signs are posted at the gates of many property & for good reason, after reading why.  Through the "FABIAN" secret society in control of the Government they purchased through the U.N Treaty 'Agenda 21' and gave away 85% of our land to the 'Mining Cartels' who are permitted to cut down thousand's trees, BUT the farmer is FINED for cutting ONE tree to grow food crops.

20120924 Des collected wood for a fire while I made some mince for Jaffal's, we set up our chairs and made a drink then watching the many trucks that travel up and down this highway.

Camped up looking over the Condamine River which has heaps of Carp swimming around, Des tried to catch one with a net but they out smarted him, well that wouldn't be hard.
He couldn't catch any carp so he thought he would try his hand at yabbying, only when he was walking down he slipped to the bottom but quickly recovered and looked around to see if I was watching, I would have loved a photo of that.
25-09-2012 We woke to a lovely sunny day and after breakfast headed for Millmerran.


The fire was still hot so Des made Brevilles for breakie only Des burnt them, they were charcoal, we just scrapped of the burnt bits and ate it anyway.


Des washing up after breakie, he's such a good wife. 
Location: Millmerran-Cecil Plains Rd, Cecil Plains QLD 4407, Australia

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 w...

20240608 Qld Miara, Miriam Vale to Turkey Beach Dick’s

Image
20240608  We arrived at Tony’s house and because his land is uneven Will, his neighbour was kind enough to let us park on his nice lawn. Des always put a jack under the steps for extra support when Tony yelled out, is that so Leonie doesn’t break the steps, No I said it’s in case you want to come in, Ha!Ha got ya.  I collecting wood from down the back while the boys did nothing apart from bending their elbows drinking beer and  because the guys were too lazy, leave it up to the only female. 50 Cans per shelf Tony recons and I’m sure he would know, he fills it every day.😁 So our Tony feed the Kookaburras with a special dog food that’s good for them and his theory is they keep the snakes away. We had a funny night while sitting around the fire that I built, and the conversation about the people we have all known while downing a few too many beers. Will worked with Dick and knew his brother who was killed in a tragic Crain accident in Darwin many years ago, we certainly liv...

20240520 NSW Deepwater to Coolatai

Image
20240520 So here we are once again back in Deepwater and parked in our old spot, how special it is to be able to connect to power, it’s like luxury especially when you’re travelling. Later in the afternoon Chris, a guy we meet last time we were here came to say Hi, then we joined him in the bar for a few ales with more of the locals. 20240521 We had the heater going all night and the van in the morning is still bloody freezing, let’s travel in winter he says, it’ll be great he says, ya sure if you like freezing all night. Des goes outside to wash up and what he thought was a dish left behind turned out to be his frozen dish cloth, I told you it was cold.🥶  We left the Longhorn and headed back to the Common Campground for a few days, we have become very fond of the spot, it’s so peaceful and secluded and has heaps of wood. We had a great few days enjoying our surroundings with no one in site, just the occasional car passing by and the only evidence is the dust off the dirt road. No...
