2018 FOOTY SEASON

Day ONE .....    Tuesday

Well what a lost day this was!  Didn't have to  wake up because I didn't sleep,  Just get out there and get started I tells myself.  70 kilometers later I haven't even seen a Boonah sign so with the help of a young lady going to work I finished up back in Beenleigh vowing to smash the Navman.


Not to be deterred by that I se off down the coast road where I should have gone in the first place.


Now I am in Ballina and on my way to see the first game of the season at the weekend. Bring it on and GOPIES.

I am sure there will be many more "Scenic Routes" before I arrive at my destination, all I need to do is make sure I keep the fuel tank full hahaha.

.Cheers Barb ... Wednesday


DAY TWO .....  Left Ballina and headed across the Great Divide at Grafton.  did the range crossing on Armidale street instead of the Gwider and found it much worst road wise.wasted mst of the day going with the Navman in circles, finished the day in Musslebrook. Not very far along and through rain and loads of roadworks.

DAY THREE. ... Thursday


Finally worked ut where I had ti gi and apart from the fore mentioned rain and road works I  had a great run and got as far as Jerilderrie. Slept like a log and woke up ready to find m way through Melbourne.

DAY FOUR.... friday


So proud of me ... hehe ... Straight through the suburbs and arrived at where I had to be without   

Met the lads and then went to my camper to sleep and .get ready for the first game on Saturday. a hitch.

DAY SIX ... First game  March 24. 


Stayed 2 weeks with Ray and Alan and had a look around the city then it as time to head home for a while.


The Navman didn't survive the  cut it finished up in the campfire after I arrived 3.5 hours later than I should have, might have to rely on the map from here on in.
CHEERS  Barb
