#GA5390 - 08:45; Day three of a mission through the Central West of New South Wales with Sol de lune to grab some of the dragonZones to our west was now on the homeward leg. After spending the night in Carinda, we headed south for home through Quambone, Coonamble, Gulargambone, Gilgandra, Dubbo, Tomingly, Parkes, Forbes and Grenfell. Today we collected finds in Walgett, Coonamble, Dubbo, Narromine, Parkes, Forbes and Weddin dragonZones and counties on our way home with some 2200 kms on the clock for the mission.

Out on a road trip with LuckyL10n to grab a few dragonZones in outback NSW that we still had to visit including Bland, Carrathool, Lachlan, Cobar, Brewarrina, Walgett, Coonamble as well as grabbing a few caches in previously visited zones. A fun 3 days with over 2200 klms notched up along the way. A visit to the little town of Carinda which is famous for a visit by David Bowie to record a film clip for one of his single releases, was a bit of a highlight. A neat pub with great food and a good sort of atmosphere. Well worth the drive off the main road to check it out. At $55 a night the accommodation, while basic, was not too bad.

This was one of the many trigs we found while out and about. No issues here and the required photo was soon snapped.

Thanks for another trig....

Pity the Caltex was closed ...

I think this is the smallest building that I've seen a CORS on so far.

Day 18 of our outback adventure which included QOGM 2019. Back into NSW today and really travelled further than I anticipated - St George to Dubbo. Will spend a couple of nights here and decide where to from here.
A little divergence into Lightning Ridge and ran into someone Greg went to school with while we looked at opals.
Thank goodness for GCA caches as the journey would have been quite boring

Cairns trip 2019. Day 2. Today was shorter and took in Coonamble, Walagett and Lightning Ridge. I\'ll have to revisit Lightning Ridge one day. This was an odd little structure on the way out of town.

Thanks

We noticed this trig had been published since we passed this way last so stopped by to grab a photo.

Many thanks for the trig Geocaching Australia

FTF on our way to Lightning Ridge. 12 months since first published. Coords out by over 330 m. Will update. We spotted it as soon as we turned into the street but went to coordinates just to check but nothing at published GZ.
