The stage is now set for the July excursion to reclaim the Flag for Trevor.
I spent the weekend in St George getting some stuff organised to take to Innamincka and have the trailer loaded with firewood.

It is only a small load

We ended up cutting about 4 trailer loads over 2 days but I could only fit so much in, It is stacked and in various size LOL
I don't think Mum will be cold for a while with all the surplus that we had cut.

We spent Thursday night camped on the northern bank of the Balonne River in Surat, The camping area there is in good order and the caravanners that were there had been catching a few fish and yabbies.

Yesterday we went and got some raffle prizes in St George. I ended up with a Condamine Bell from Riversands Winery
see here for details

I also scored an empty commerative stockmans water bagsimilar to this

I also picked up a few other items to add to the prizes and a few people have mentioned that they may add to the collection when I pass through St George on the way to Innamincka.

We came home via Roma today and went along the Taroom-Roma road. It is currently in fair condition with road works being done along the dirt/gravel sections. They have graded 40% of the dirt and they remainder is corrogated and rutted.


In all it was a great weekend away and now I'm looking forward to July.

Cheers Kev
