I went away for a few days with my friend, Judy, just west of the Brisbane area to Kilcoy and Toogoolawah. It was an opportunity to do a bit of a shake down trip while I had my friend around to support me. This is my first trip away without my Chris.
Have to say it was very difficult emotionally, as I expected the first trip to be. Everything with the van went well, a couple of small issues I sorted through. It’s just sad he is no longer here. Just taking one day at a time.
Kilcoy is pretty close to where I live so a great spot for a quick shake down. It’s a farming community with a great town and friendly people. Very RV friendly with a 24hr stop. Short walk into the town area, next to a dog park and a sporting oval. There are toilets and showers only a short walk away, dump point and place to fill up with water. Plenty of walking including down to the local creek.
Would be a lovely place for a dip on a warm day.
There is also a lovely walking path around the sports field and dam.
We had a lovely sunset one night. This is a very popular spot and for good reason.
We woke to a very foggy morning and heavy dew. Did give a lovely atmosphere
Dew on a spider web on the fence.
We moved slightly further west to the town of Toogoolawah. The free 24hr camping area very close to the town and bike trail. There are toilets close by, short stroll into town.
Also the site of the old railway station.
My friend tried to milk the local cow but no luck
This was just a short trip this time. A bigger trip is planned for August out west to Charlotte Plains, with several other hot pools and places a long the way.
Live long and Prosper.
