22.01.2022 So great to see Lainie and Terry after a long time, catching up on what our mutual sailing friends are - or are not - doing. We camp beside them for a few days in the CMCA bush camp. From right, Lainie, Terry and Ted (and of course Charlie) Charleville is a kooky little town with a Hotel charismatically called the [ 462 more words ] http://blackwattleroaming.org/20//12/nothing-goes-to-plan/

21.01.2022 If we thought that Camden Park was desert... What are we doing here Mum? What happened to Home? View at sunset - that cattle feeder is now a Loo! This is such an old tree -Where are its friends? How did it survive? What stories could it tell? ... we were heartbroken to arrive in Longreach and hear about their eight year drought.

12.01.2022 Into red dirt country So so flat we have mirages everywhere Hard to catch on camera Pilliga as it is today...lost some gloss We found it! Ted's first remembered home... the illustrious NAB of Pilliga (but called CBC in those days), now the post office Heading west to find Ted's first remembered home town From Barkala Farm, we go to find the place where Ted lived until he was six, in Pilliga when his young father was rising in the Commercial Banking Co, (now the NAB) and he was given his first manager's job - in Pilliga.

05.01.2022 We leave Lightning Ridge aiming for Cameron Corner, heading for Goodooga for overnight, but one look at, first the town, then the big square paddock packed with caravans around the hot springs bath, and the foot lands on the accelerator. So we head south west into claypan and mulga bush country. We're getting used to the mirages that remain permanently on the road ahead and float around the horizons.

04.01.2022 Milparinka is just off the road in fact it isn't there at all any more just the pub and two houses for the caretakers. It was an early gold mining centre and just the stone remains of the buildings of quite a substantial town. At its height, Milparinka had a newspaper, police office, chemist shop, two butchers, a courthouse, a school, a hospital and four hotels - there's only one left.

03.01.2022 This was the original blog from which the book was derived - 216,000 words of it, so don't try to read it unless you are masochistic in the extreme or are about to embark on your own sailing circumnavigation. (Only about 70,000 words were used in SSFF - and they were changed a lot!)

03.01.2022 At first everything goes well. Driving through these western NSW plains is like passing through a movie set. Trees float on the horizon, grass grows between a long railway track as straight as the sandy red road ahead. Young green cotton fields are both sides, monstrous wheat silos compete with the newer cotton buildings. Gidgee trees splatter the fields untidily and the irrigation channels thread through the fields, showing occasional sun reflections in the distance.
