Moving On

After leaving Armidale, we headed towards Inverell as there were not big hills were Boris would have trouble climbing. We were heading towards Queensland as it is suppose to be warmer. We first stopped at a place just over the border called Texas which is another free camp spot, where in the main street( about 3min drive) they have very clean toilets and a hot shower and they are also free, so every second day we would head in there for a long hot shower. Texas was a great small little town were you could stay for 2 weeks plus it was warmer so we could put our thermals away.  Back in the day it was were tabacco was grown and there are still tabacco drying house still there but not in use.




We stayed there for about a week and a half as we met up with my mum and dad as they were heading home from their travels.  Ray decided that visiting tips were the go as you could take what you wanted and not pay for it so now we take photos of every tip shop we visit that is for free. I must say there has been some good finds. So now when we go to a town we go to their tip and their op shop as we never now what we will find. We did do a trip to Stanthorpe and Goondawindi  and look around. Our girl got to see how cotton was grow and picked, so another lesson for here.
