Moonie to Teebar - Friday 14 June 2019

I just went for a walk around our campground at the Teebar Campdraft and Rodeo - campfires, generators and horses everywhere! There’s 3 horses practically tethered to our car’s bullbar!! This could be quite the event!

When the four of us were doing trip planning months ago, we agreed it would be good to attend a local event. It seems we always arrive in a town the week before or week after a show/rodeo/concert/event so we did a search of what was on and so it turns out the Teebar Campdraft and Rodeo is on tomorrow. We planned to be here - which almost got thwarted by car trouble - but the four of us will be back together tomorrow, ready to enjoy the rodeo and music.

Greg and I woke early (for us) in Moonie this morning - to no power! Our batteries were dead flat which was quite concerning. Thankfully being in the caravan park meant we could plug into power to charge the batteries and a bit of investigation revealed the fault (we think! Fingers crossed) so it wasn’t until 10am that we hit the road. Elevenses in Dalby, and a trip to the liquor warehouse to stock up on beer and then we kept going. The road conditions varied greatly! Lunch and fuel in Kingaroy and we kept driving. At least there were fewer trucks on this part of the road.

We arrived into Teebar mid afternoon, a sea of campsites evident from way back down the road! It was probably perfect time when we arrived, the only downside being we couldn’t save a campsite for Neill and Jude. They hit the road this afternoon, keen to catchup to us. They are basically a day behind us, but they plan to hit the road very early tomorrow morning with a view to get here before lunch.

So tomorrow we will see what this is all about! There’s a friendly bunch of people around us, some cute dogs and maybe I’ll pat a horse before dinner - because I can!
