Road trip

Hubz took a week off work and we went off for a road trip to spend time with long-time friends.....

Past the cotton farms near Dalby....


Going westwards with grasslands and big blue skies....


... to the Outback lands......


lots of grass since there were some rains ....


The biggest cattle sale yards in the Southern Hemisphere (I think) at Roma.....


open plains and mountains....


A view point looking towards the valley ..... photo just doesn't do it justice....


.. and another in a different direction.... you can see the road we were yet to travel....


To a cattle station in Arcadia Valley..... (past Injune)

This is outside our accommodation... not much grass there....


Lovely drives and amazing views on the Station.... this is one of the dams with a viewing treehouse, limited water but still available for the roos and birds....


a closer look and you can see a couple of roos lounging around..... black swans in the dam....


so much flat land in the valley.... and mountains all around....


The station has a movie night each week.... it was very cold after the sun goes down so we didn't ask to have one..... beautiful setting though....


A very beautiful part of the world.  About 7 hours drive away..... so a fair bit of crochet got done..... We did do some exploring but I still need to sort through pictures....

Catching up reading some blogs today and tackling the huge pile of washing that seems to come home after a trip....

Righto, Gotto Go... one lot of washing needs to be brought in..... (sigh)
