The Outback Odyssey Trilogy – Part 1

July 2013

G’Day Mob,

I had just walked in the door after a game of hockey when Brian casually handed me a newspaper advertisement: “For Lease: Boorara Station – 285,000 acres”.

Two hundred and eighty five THOUSAND acres

Two hundred and eighty five thousand OUTBACK acres

 

So Mob, want to come on an adventure?

Aah Spa

G’Day Mob,

We’ve been out to the opal fields again, catching up with Jenni at the Australian Opal Centre, learning a little more about mining at the Sheepyard, watching the Ugly Man Competition at Grawin and enjoying a few rums with our friends at Glengarry. But the opal fields are 5-6 hours from home and when you’ve been travelling in a rough and rattly farm ute you would kill for a hot spa at the end of the day. Thankfully Lightning Ridge can oblige.
