ONTO MY POST CORNEAL GRAFTS TRIP.

DAY 1   27/05/2021

Left Kalbar for a trip into the warmth. First night at Kilcoy and I froze, best get the big rug out again. Uneventful trip but I’m finally on my way for the first time in 2 years.

Day 2

 Changed plans and went to Goomeri QLD for the pumpkin festival to meet up with some friends. Called in to Moore for breakfast and found an awesome cafe that sells the best casual clothes. Left in a hurry and saved a couple of hundred $$$$.  Arrived in Goomeri and camped up behind the Servo. Now to go and check out the town, or what there is to see.

DAY 3

Well that didn’t go to plan and I returned from whence I came to regroup before heading north again.


After a couple of days in Kalbar I took a trip to Rathdowney to meet up with a traveller who wants to do a trip north with me. We are both held up with car repairs being done. I found out that my auto choke is the reason my van has been slow to start, hopefully it won’t cost an arm and leg to get fixed.

Had a nice lunch with family to celebrate  my great grandson’s first birthday and fulfilled a couple of requests from Tracey and now ready to go.

Winter has certainly hit us with snow at Guyra overnight which has sent an Antarctic wind just to remind us that north QLD is beckoning.

2020/2021 ENJOYING THE MUSIC.

 Just an update on the past 5 month!

All the medical appoints and follow ups have been completed and I  was ready to go. The Covid put a stop to that with yet another border closure so I am sitting at Canungra enjoying the scenery and music.

A visit from a friend of one of the campers proved inspirational to me so I now have a Ukulele and a nice shines red Guitar.

March 5th saw me more than ready to leave Canungra and head for Spring Gully for the Coast Acoustics Club March meetup weekend. What an amazing weekend it turned out to be.

I met some fantastic musicians, ate delicious Mexican foods can enjoyed a bourbon or two around the campfire., learnt a lot about what I need to do to and how to do it to become proficient on my Guitar and Ukulele. Practice, practice, practice is the order of the day. Thank goodness I have plenty of time at my “finger tips”

Watch this space in a little while for a video of my progress.

Of course it wouldn’t be a music meet without a concert and we weren’t disappointed. Hopefully in five months time at the next one I will be able to entertain along with the rest of them.

Some of the late stayers.




More pics when I get on the other device.
