Thank God for the free powered site in Wullumbilla as it was
pretty bloody cold last night, even with the heater on. The boys climbed under
the covers on our bed and we snuggled in the cold, but all good things ahve to
come to an end, we had to hit the road, we had a fair few Ks to cover.
All packed up we hit the road and kept of driving. We pulled
up at Miles to take a picture to complete our “Are We There Yet” tour, we didn’t
shear any sheep while we were there, we have done that elsewhere.
We stopped in Dalby and had chip buddies in the park, but we
really lashed out for our last lunch and had a potato scallop and calamari ring
each! By mid afternoon we were in
Toowoomba and we stopped by one of my customers to say Hi. There was a light
rain falling, the first we have seen of the wet stuff, thankfully, for an awfully
long time!
Around 3 we pulled into our good friends Jo and Kev’s house
our last free camp for the trip. De has know them for more than 20 years and it
was great to see some familiar faces again. The boys played with their kids
while we chatted, having nibblies and a few refreshing beers. When Kev came
home dinner was on and we all sat around their massive kitchen table and had a
yummy dinner. As the night wore on beer turned to wine and then Kev and I endeavoured
to finish of the last of my drum of rum...we almost made it!

It was already tomorrow when we called it stumps, in less
than 12 hours we will be home!
