Looks like the weather has been and gone with blue skies this morning, warmer temps but gee is it humid. I think one more day and it might be time to break out the shorts.

Had a day to explore around Tamworth visiting the landmarks and sights and of course grabbing some geocaches as well.

The best spot to get an overall view of Tamworth and surrounds is up a steep windy road to the Oxley Scenic Lookout.

Next stop was to find a Telstra Hotspot and download updates for the various electronic devices. The iPad had an IOS update and 37 app updates. The Samsung’s had similar numbers.

All around town there are memorials, statues and parks that link to the Country Music background of Tamworth and not to forget the Golden Guitar.

There are handprints (Hands of Fame Corner) , bronze busts and even stone busts (Bicentennial Park) of Australia’s Country Music royalty.

You only need to wander down Peel Street and you can find Slim Dusty and Smoky Dawson, and they don’t mind a selfie either.

It must be the wrong time of the year as the only cowboys and cowgirls in town were those at the Horse event at the Australian Equine and Livestock Centre.

To finish the day, there was a spectacular sunset behind some large storm clouds on the Western hills.
