On the way to Melbourne



Had a good run, travelling through Queensland. Stopped in Blackbutt for a few days, waiting for the floods to clear in NSW to continue on.  Visited the Warrumbungle National Park for some walking, a great place....unloaded the bike in Melbourne and rode to Mildura for the Ulysses AGM; met up with old friends who have hired a house boat. we spent more time on the river than at the AGM. We had a great time.









2012 is going too fast....

We are reaching the end of 2012, not sure where the days went, Had no time to work on the blog....
Some people did not get the joke about my post 'Give me a good reason to return to Australia' if you have a look the house was condemned, a ruin, the old 4L car probably would not make it too far ...
Anyway, I did get back to Cairns with a load of goodies such as motorcyling gear....spanish leather shoes.....got a job guiding a group from Adelaide to the Rock via Kangaroo Island, the Flinders, Coober Pedy...was really nice, the desert was so green and we had a ball.
December , cleaned up the house to prepare it for rental; probably did nothing exciting for Christmas as I dont remember it!
 January, went to Brisbane for medical attention; found a van at a good price on the Sunshine Coast and drove back to Cairns.
 Feb: my mate, Peter, from Blackbutt, came to build wardrobes in the bedrooms, a ceiling in the bathroom and helped to paint inside . I got a new oven installed and a dishwasher. spent over my budget but it looks very nice
Peter built a folding single bed inside the van; Larry and his electrician mate installed a winch to load my big motorcycle effortless.





Van all loaded up , I head off South to Melbourne to do a course on Documentary making.
