A great 12 days on the road..
Murrurundi 1st night
Humptys, Me, Phill and Veronica, John and Pam, and Dave and Jenny with thier modern camper trailer along for the run as well ( peace of mind having late model back up with us).
To me this day was the highlight of the tour... a sight i thought i would NEVER see... .. John reversing his van....and... almost getting it right.. in the end it was a case of doing a loop around the park until he found a gap to drive through and pull onto his site...
A great arvo catching up with old mates over a few beers... just a few.
Day two and we where up early for a 9:00 am muster and set off for kootingal via Qurindi and Werris Creek where we stopped for a bite and a look through the Railway Museum.. a fantastic collection of railway memrobilia. Through Tamworth and on into Kootingal Caravan Park for the Thursday night stay,,Its a basic sort of park but the managers where excited to have us staying there and made us fell quite welcome....another extended happy hour and then off to the camp kitchen to cook up the evening meal.
I will leave the story at that for now...
You might ask.. where are the photos Reddo... you always have photos.???
The answer is.... i dont know!!
I came home.. hooked the camera up to the computer to download the 120 or thereabouts photos i had taken of overnight camps, Shed tours at Narrabri and Uralla, attractions like the hot water bores at Moree,Burren Junction, , The chamber of the Black Hand Opal Mine Tour, The clubs in the Scrub at Lightning Ridge, Humptys van tyre blowout near Collarenabri , etc, etc, .. I done the usual "Create a folder" in "Pictures" and ....instead of doing the usual "Copy and paste" to the folder i "Cut and paste" .. sat and watched while the download transferred each picture across to the new folder. When it had finished i clicked on the folder to check out the pix...... and... it was empty.???...... so... the photos are off in cyber land at the moment. Stuck somewhere along the way between Camera and screen ???. Gunna get my 6 year old grandson to see if he can sort the issue out...
..
Anyway... more on the tour later ....
