Heading to the Deep South …

Well it is now a couple of days into my Recreation Leave, the sun is out and there is no wind. Everything is right to head away in the Thommo Taj.

Unfortunately Jenny still has to work so I will be batching for the next month. After stocking up with provisions it was time to start heading down to the south-east.

Millicent is the site for the GeoVenture2020 Mega Event during Easter 2020 but as we have just booked our flights to the US for March and April next year, we will not be able to attend the Mega.

There is already a couple of hundred geocaches that have been put out for the Event so I was headed down for a few days to try and find them all.

90 of the geocaches were puzzles and the last few weeks was mad puzzle solving time.It was a good drive down south, catching up on missed phone calls, a big list of un-listened podcasts and a few geocaches as well.

At Tintinara, I stopped in to fill up at Liberty when pounced upon by the car wax guys. The usual thing they picked a few spots to use it then did a couple of tricks then came the sell. I just said to the guy does it look like I wash my car and he left me and I was on my way again. It was lucky I had done some dirt driving a couple of days ago and the car was a mixture of red and ochre instead of silver.

It has been some time since I have been to Millicent and it surprised me with traffic lights and even a Jaguar Dealership. Pulled into the Hillview Caravan Park to have the pick of the sites with only 3 other caravans here. I picked a site with views over the paddocks to Mount Burr. The sun was setting and a full moon was rising, just right for a couple of photos.
