Chinchilla 21/7/18

After the boys did more boy stuff, like fixing water pipes, and Amelia  chopped wood for the fire we went in to  Chinchilla to have lunch and play tourist while Amelia went to the movies with her friends.

After a very yummy chinese lunch we walked across the road to an information area.




Rotary water wheel 

This building was inundated with water almost to the top of the windows on the first floor 

An old bank building 
Then we headed off for a wander around the pioneer cemetry.

Outside the cemetery was an old piece of a petrified wood.
Barry suggested we visited some water features next.

Cattle were grazing at the lagoon.  The area is in need of some decent rain.

Round water hole looks like a lovely spot for free camping 


We checked out the flood water marks for the town.

Stopped at Archers crossing before going home to cook a lamb roast for dinner.

After a huge meal Barry headed to bed, Amelia watched a movie & Mark, Carol & I  had a few games of sequence.
The temperature dropped to MINUS 3 overnight.
