Cloncurry to Winton To Ilfracombe to Tambo,& Charleville

Back again, I'm trying to catch up.
After leaving Cloncurry, we drove to McKinlay & the "Walkabout" pub, where Crocadile Dundee was made. It was a good little pub, but was disappointing due to the poor response from the publican.At lunchtime that day, we stopped at another pub in Kynuna, that was called "The Blue Heeler Hotel". The atmosphere there was great. Our next stop was at Winton, where we stayed for 4 weeks, whilst I worked for the local electrician.Avril voulenteered at the hospital during this time. We really felt like we were part of the community, & almost felt sorry to leave. The next stop was at Ilfracombe, where we stayed for two nights. Whilst there, we spent time in Longreach, & the Stockman's Hall of Fame. We had one day & night in a little town called Tambo, & we saw Lawn for the first time in 2 months. Now, we are in Charleville, & will be leaving here on Sunday morning. I will post some photos very soon.
Love to you all,
Avril & Doug. XXXXXXX
