No photos for this issue.
We had a casual departure from Mount Morgan as we did not have very far to travel. Once we packed up we pulled out of the caravan park and went into the Mount Morgan CBD to get a Sunday paper. Then we stopped at a little shop for a coffee. We wondered what the quality would be like. It was passable but definitely not the best i had had.
The journey continued to the village of Dululu. It has a unique looking hotel, a well looked after rest area and not a lot else.We turned to the north to rejoin the main highway.
After joining the Capricorn Highway again, we proceeded towards the west. As we traveled we saw the regular coal trains again. I am led to believe when the coalfields are doing full production there is a train passing a single point every 7 minutes.
The next stop was a small village of Duaringa. It has a large rest area and free camp that has showers and toilets. we had lunch there and caught up on emails.
Soon after, we crossed the main rail line and drove north on the Beef Road before turning off it to drive the 5 kms into our friends, Phil and Margy, farm. we set up and then chatted until later in the evening.
We are here until Thursday morning, so a few maintenance jobs to do while here. Phil has a few helpful workshop items should I need them. His hobby is restoring antique engines.
