What a little gem we stayed at last night. Joseph Wills Park, Elsmore, NSW Between Inverell and Glen Innes. Approx 2-3kms of gravel road to get to the place. Very quiet, large grassy area with lots of table and chairs. Long drop toilets right next to MacIntyre River. Run by the local Lions Club and … Continue reading Joseph Wills Park, Elsmore, NSW
Bingara Mk2
Sometimes when you find that perfect spot you just got to stop and enjoy it. We stayed at Bingara in NSW for a week in one of the free spots by the river close to the town area. You have to be fully self contained to stay here. We had this large area to ourselves … Continue reading Bingara Mk2
Relax you are getting sleepy
The rest area at Jennings is a very short walk up to the Wallangarra Train Station on the Qld border, there is a cafe open everyday and on Sunday a local market. We were very fortunate to time our walk up there to when a steam train was getting ready to pull out of the … Continue reading Relax you are getting sleepy
Bonshaw Weir
We were sad to leave the great camping spot we had here at Bingara but with only a few days left this trip we had to move on. We were going to stop at Severn River, at the time the grass was long but it was being mowed, there was very little water in the … Continue reading Bonshaw Weir
Bingara

Tamworth to Manilla

Tamworth does not seem to be RV friendly. There are a lot more shops and businesses in this area than when we use to live here. … Continue reading Tamworth to Manilla

Over the Easter Saturday and Sunday, the Nundle Go For Gold Festival was on, we had avoided coming here until today because we figured it would be … Continue reading Sheba Dams Nundle
Bendemeer Camping
After we left Yarrowyck we went into Uralla and had morning tea at a park. Then stopped at the old cemetery which is supposed to be the resting place of Thunderbolt. There were many other old graves dating back into the 1800’s. At the entrance there is a plaque listing all the graves who is … Continue reading Bendemeer Camping
Yarrowyck Crossing
It’s been a long time since we have been in this neck of the woods. We lived in Tamworth and Chris used to come up to Armidale for work. It will be nice to look at the place from a tourist perspective even if it’s only for the day. It was a little cool last … Continue reading Yarrowyck Crossing
Mother of Ducks Lagoon
We were on the road before 8am as we had a decent drive today and wanted to get to Guyra by lunch time so we could have time to explore the area. We have stopped for the night at Mother of Ducks Lagoon, which is right next to the golf course. This was once a … Continue reading Mother of Ducks Lagoon
