The valley looked spectacular especially with the sun shining on the sandstone escarpment.
We had morning tea at a place called Injune then travelled south to Roma. That looks to be a thriving country town - and quite a large one too. We then turned east along the Warrego highway and ended up at this quaint place as the write ups said campfires permitted and that was our one prerequisite! The place is 30 odd kms from Miles and has the potential to be a fantastic place as its quiet and peaceful and yes, we have our campfire! 
We are set among the native pines and behind us is a ravine and waterhole. We can use as much wood as we like and we've had the fire going nearly all day as its a bit cool.
Tops and I spent nearly all day washing as there's only one machine which takes an hour to complete the cycle!! We are happy however that we've been able to get it all dry - we hear that we're going to run into wet weather tomorrow! Dennis has finally gotten around to making his apple pie - with some attentive onlookers.
While he slaves away in the kitchen, Darryl's been busy making friends 😏
The owner here just loves to talk and we'd really like to see him put some of that energy into cleaning the place as its a bit run down and could do with some tidying up. This old log cabin has certainly seen better days!
However, it's suited us this stay and it's far better than being regimented in a caravan park. We've topped up the wood supply too and have been able to go for walks through the bush.
With the inclement forecast, we will be wise and head for a caravan park in Dalby (Dennis's birth place) so we don't get stuck out bush. And from there we'll head to Ipswich and Brisbane to be fattened up and spoilt by Rick and Flo, Rob and Pru. How lucky are we?
It's getting dull and rain could be coming so I'll sign off until the next blog 😀😀 xxxxxxx
