Thallon free camp

Headed down towards Thallon, just north of Mungindi on the NSW border and into the free camp site there.  We detoured into Beardmore Dam for lunch, been years since I was last there, the level is a bit low due to the drought etc but the surrounds are looking really good. Did a tour around St George, there has been a lot of changes there, new businesses and parks etc, really improved the Town.
Brought back a lot of memories, both good and bad, very nostalgic day.
What a brilliant spot, the back drop was the wheat silos mural, find the 3 kangaroos,  see the pic. Hot bore water showers were fantastic so we had a lay over for a day and caught with the washing. Hot bore water really gets them clean.
The nights are getting colder, light frost each morning and the hoodie gets a work out each night.
Now that is a scary sight!  Didn't realise how being follickly challenged made my head so dam cold.
We are travelling to Inverell when we leave here to have another go at the elusive Sapphires etc.
