1st June 2024
Distance: 382.6 Km
I had intended to leave early but in the event didn’t get going until about 7.30am, it was a cold, damp morning so I had a long hot shower before breakfast. I made a coffee to have in the car as I drove.
When I set off from Cowra it was very foggy but the fog suddenly disappeared almost instantly as I left the town.
In spite of the forecast it didn’t actually rain on my way home though it remained grey and overcast the whole time. An easy drive, most of it being on the Hume Highway and being a Saturday morning there was little traffic. I arrived home about midday.
Jobs
Got stuck straight into the task of emptying the car and camper of bedding, clothes etc that needed washing which will probably get done on Monday when a sunny day is predicted. Will empty the car of equipment on Sunday.
There are few minor jobs that need doing on the camper and I have a few ideas for improvements. I have ordered an awning for the side of the car even though I did enjoy the cover provided by my gazebo. The battery in the camper is suspect, I might replace it with an AGM battery – the one in the car is still going strong after 8 years of use.
The car is way overdue for a service!
I suspect that is probably the last long trip I undertake, in future will look at shorter trips of perhaps a few days or a maximum of a week to ten days. I like southern Queensland and there is a lot to explore in Victoria.
