Quite possibly a boring passion
I’m sure that we humans are each afflicted with a boring passion, be it stamp collecting, train spotting or being detectorists (thanks Netflix for great comedy viewing ‘The Detectorists’). Mine is iron lacework spotting. No, I don’t nick the stuff, … Continue reading Quite possibly a boring passion
Snippets of Jugiong
Sep 2019, Jugiong, NSW This pretty highwayside town in Southern New South Wales captured our hearts in little more than an afternoon and overnight stay. It will be hard to go past this place in future. Continue reading Snippets of Jugiong
Follow the Sun – Jugiong

Follow the Sun – Nambucca to Morisset
Day 62, 13/9/2019 Friday, Nambucca Heads to Morisset, just 20 It’s time to say goodbye to this captivating area. We spot an osprey nest atop a pole, in a paddock. Smoke still hangs in the air. The Pacific Highway thankfully, is quiet. We quickly get back into the rhythm of the road.

And so, it’s Pacific Highway, bone jarring, NSW concrete highway all the way with no towns to break the monotony. We keep ourselves sane by … Continue reading Follow the Sun – Nambucca to Morisset

Nambucca Noodlings – Saying goodbye
Sep 2019, Nambucca Heads, NSW We’re starting to pack. Woody scoots down to Macksville to buy delicious ham off the bone from our favourite butcher. Washing day is easy as we’re parked close to the laundry. Woody takes advantage of the improved weather and washes the awning with awning cleaner mix. El Prado who’s also scrubbing away admits to carrying a full- sized vacuum cleaner with them just to clean his car. Holy canoli, that’s even better than the friend of ours who carries an ice cream maker just in case she sees fresh fruit. We have a lazy afternoon … Continue reading Nambucca Noodlings – Saying goodbye
