Workman’s Beach Camping Area, Agnes Water, QLD – Near Seventeen Seventy (1770)
When choosing a camp spot, we tend to stay next to a river, creek or waterhole. Because we have dogs, it can sometimes be hard to find a dog friendly camping area located next to a beach. It was our first night in our brand new camper trailer and we […]
Lakeview Caravan Park, Richmond QLD
Between Julia Creek and Hughenden on the Flinders Highway, you will find the small town of Richmond. We drove through the area in late November 2014 and it was terribly dry. Hundreds of kilometres of barren paddocks, skinny cattle and lots of road-kill that had obviously come to the roadside […]
Neville Hewitt Weir, Baralaba QLD
An hour or two South-West of Rockhampton is the small town of Baralaba. The town is boosted by the mining industry, which is evident by the number of four-wheel-drives hanging around with the yellow stripes down the sides. Baralaba has a pub, with lovely, cold beer on tap which is […]
Tatts Hotel – Winton, Queensland
In our travels we love visiting country pubs. Even though we have dogs, we can usually find a pub that is relaxed enough to find us an area we can sit and have a beer. It’s usually in a smoking area, where people don’t eat food. We don’t smoke, but […]

Glasshouse Mountains, Queensland
I’m not fit. Sometimes I’m lazy. My cousin Mitchell on the other hand is neither of these things. This time last year he ran his first half marathon. Since then he has ran several full marathons and most recently set out on a 100km race through The Glasshouse Mountains. Jazz […]
Blackall, Central Queensland
It seems that every pub we visit in a country town, they are searving Chinese food for dinner. Blackall was no exception. The first time we visited Blackall was actually on a work trip. We flew into the small Longreach airport then hired a car and drove back through Barcaldine, […]
