Catching Up


Where have the months gone since my last update?  
        

The Country Music Campout in November certainly put our organisational skills to the test.  But it was a wonderful weekend - plenty of music, chatting and akubra hats.


 

On the other side of the coin, the record floods on Australia Day created havoc up and down the length of the Valley.  I played my part in the relief effort providing Phoenix with a centre from which to organise the cleanup and giving QRAA an office through which flood relief information could be disseminated to locals. 

 

 


I withstood the storms with little damage – lost the shade cover off the office and a few limbs from the trees in the garden.  So visitors have been able to continue to enjoy this Bush Getaway.
 

 It’s amazing how many different types of camping setups there are. Everyone should be able to find something that’s just right for them. 
I’m also intrigued by the many forms of transport I see arrive at the Centre.  These bikes were here as part of the 21st birthday celebrations of the Gladstone Ulysses Club.


Now it’s full speed ahead to have the new kitchen finished before the Ubobo Bush Festival in June.
