The new car and van



Heading south to Wagga Wagga

20th May,
Stayed at Clermont, long day, started at about 4.30am.  Very busy park, full of mine workers.

21st may
Injune tonight, pity about the prickles in the park.
Nearly every second vehicle on the road has a van behind it.  The winter migration of the grey nomads is in full flight.  They are all heading north for the winter.
We must be crazy, heading south!!
Had a great meal at the pub, barra, salad & chips, the fish was to die for!

22nd May
thick fog this morning, haven't seen one of them for a while.  Nice drive to St George, we'll stay here tonight. Lovely park. Bushy, was great, a bush poet, he entertained us for about 2 hours around the fire.  Big fire, good bottle of red and great entertainment and good company +++.

23rd May
Getting colder  now, needing a jumper!!  Good rain last night, they need it out this way.  Apparently there was some small hail here at Coonamble last night too.  We'll stay here the night.
