With the Queensland Outback Geocaching Muster now over, it is the 2000 kilometre trek back to South Australia. The weather up here has been great with warm days and warm nights but apparently SA has had warm weather as well. I bet it doesn’t stay that way.

Oh well, time to enjoy the shorts and t-shirt weather while it lasts.

I had a bout of gout in my left ankle overnight so was in no hurry to get on the road.

Eventually left the Barcy area around 11am.

First stop was Blackall to grab a few geocaches that I missed last week. The lunch stop was Tambo.

There was a group of Harleys heading south and I was overtaken by them 3 times during the day. In fact they ended up camping next to me at Charleville.

Arriving intoCharleville just before 5pm, it was restock time at the IGA and refuel at the United. Digs tonight was the Bailey Bar Caravan Park for a change. We normally stay at the Cobb & Co Caravan Park. The Bailey Bar is very tight but there are nice grass sites.

I wonder what time the Harleys will fire up in the morning.

Diesel @ Charleville $1.579, Blackall $1.609, Barcaldine $1.559
