It rained during the night and I’d brought all our washing indoors. The inside of the motorhome looked like a laundry!
We decided to hired a small SUV for the day and found the hire care company SIXT has a depot in Orange. They had a Subaru Crosstrek available for the day and we thought that would do nicely. We called a cab to drop us off there and, once we’d collected the car, we drove around to Susie’s and spent the morning at her place catching up with everyone from the day before.
Rich and I headed off in the car about 1pm to drive out towards Stuart Town an hour away. One of Richard’s school mates has purchased a bush block at Mt Aquila and we followed the directions he’d given us to find our way there.
We spent the afternoon visiting Stu and Kylie at their mountainous bush block. What an amazing view across the steep valley from where they have built their ‘shack’. Stu is a hunter and the property has a lot of feral deer for him to hunt down. We were so glad we’d hired the SUV as the road in and out of Stu’s place was pretty rough. The gravel road from the Stuart Town turnoff was not too bad to start with but it became progressively worse the further along we went. I was glad we were not in the motorhome!
Back in town we had dinner at Susie’s and then it was back to camp at the caravan park.
