Nothing much to add, easter came and went, had a great weekend with the 4wd club at Dooroombah. we did a day trip into the warrumbungles, as the visitor centre burnt down in the fires early this year, we were met in the carpark by 2 of the rangers who gave us a guided tour to the only lookout open in the park. the aftermath of the fires is amazing, but, there is quite a bit of regrowth.

We paid a flying visit to sydney to register our old camper trailer and deliver it to its new home. As it had been raining on and off and was pretty overcast we decided to head west to get away from the rain on the coast. Spent the first night at Ben Halls cave campground in Wedin Mt NP just out of grenfell, did the walk to the cave, in error, meant to do lynchs walk but  went up the wrong track, oh well, next time. Not hundred per cent sure that ben hall ever actually stayed there or not but it makes a good story.  Next move was going to be to lake cargelligo, had a look at the 3 free camp sites in the area and all were unimpressive to bloody awful so took off back down the road to Tullinbigeal(?) good little freebie at the pioneer park in town, has some power sites, flushing dunnies and a shower. We left there for Narranderra and spent a couple of nights at the showground there, had to get before the weekend as they had an antique fair booked! Had an extended stopover in Goulburn on way back, the gps missed a turn, when I did a U turn to go back one of the brackets on the weight distributing bars got bent, lucky tho I didnt have to buy the whole kit, just replace the bent bit. Now back in sydney house sitting for a week and then only a week to fill in before the cruise, might start to think about thinking about packing some clothes?
