Things that made me smile

It was smiles all the way up the highway
Home to the Vic border, up to the Qld border, across to Rocky
and then on up to Bowen
Good weather (very unusual) – no rain, no fog, no frosty mornings
Light traffic – unusual for the Newell, the Leichhardt and the Bruce
Few trucks, less Wobblys (caravans) hardly any local town traffic.
Open roads! Unheard of in the Dubbo area
Look, an overtaking lane and nobody to overtake’….made me smile to hear The Golfer say that. He dislikes being in a ‘convoy’

Strangely for me I took no photos until we came to the Queensland border

A welcome sight – even through a dirty windscreen

After a quiet week settling in – hello library beach and supermarket
(no blog reading or commenting yet though)
nothing was planned for Saturday
a cool dry sunnyish but very windy morning arrived so washing is up to date

Lunch time a surprise visitor arrived in the form of Mr Whippy
nothing funnier than ‘retired’ adults clutching their money – waiting in line
for a childhood pleasure

Followed by a surprise visit of dark clouds rolling in and the retired oldies
retiring inside their vans and cabins
because – the heavens opened and the rain came down

Then a short time later blue skies reappeared
But unlike Incy Wincy Spider nobody came out again 🙁

Because…….
there was AFLfooty and rugby and cycling and car racing and horse racing
sport galore and maybe more on the telly!

********

Incy wincy spider climbed up the waterspout
Down came the rain and washed poor incy out
Out came the sun and dried up all the rain
So incy wincy spider climbed up the spout again
