TRH (The Retired Husband) and I are off today on a short ten day road trip. This time it’s a ‘rellie crawl’ – so visiting various family and friends scattered between Mt Gambier, South Australia and Lakes Entrance in Victoria . My postings may be a bit erratic but I will do my best to capture some interesting things along the way to share with you.

So far so good Janet. He’s older now and needs more pitstops than I do, lol !!!
I love road trips!! Have a fantastic time!!!
Thanks 🙂
If you see the Blue Lake I hope it is blue….
It is still this time for the year, but will fade off soon with winter on the way. We had a good look around it on our last trip in Sept.
Have all kinds of fun! That’s one of my favorite Willie songs. LOVE the movie Honeysuckle Rose and have worn my soundtrack album out! 😀
LOL!!!Wea\ have arrived at our first destination – Mt Gambier, 480km. Staying with Shalini for the night and leaving before sunrise to make it in time for ferry crossing.
Bon voyage and may you play plenty more of the great Willie as you roam ❤️💛💚💙💜
🙂
Safe journey, look for something spiritual on the way 😉
Will do 🙂
Have fun!
Thanks- great so far except for the kangaroo that decided to jump out as we drove past (lots of damage to 2 car doors – it lived) and the bird that dented our bonnet 😦
You must have done something to upset them.
No, it’s pretty common problem here. We wee on the road at peak activity time – dusk. There are always kangaroo road kill carcasses along the raod sides.
They’re fighting a losing battle against saucie motorists. I assume the bird was on a suicide mission?
Yes, it as a kamakaze one 🙂
