While Greg had breakfast, Wendy took her time getting out of bed; she had a hotel room coffee and biscuits for 'breakfast'. We were back on the road at 0710h (NSW time) heading North. First stop was at Boggabilla for fuel at $2.799, the cheapest for lots of km! We're already getting used to the ridiculous prices caused by a maniac starting another unnecessary war! Stopped at Goondiwindi for breakfast/mornos from Maccas, Moonie for a driver change, Kingaroy for a comfort stop and driver change, and then we were home, arriving at 1440h (QLD time). We had the bikes off and back in the shed, and the Cruiser unpacked by about 1515h so Greg decided he had earned a cuppa tea. By 1630h, all suitcases, bags and eskies had been unpacked and contents stowed in their rightful place, even if it was the laundry pile.
We have a lot of work to do in the house (spiderwebs and dead insects), and the yard - looks like a mini jungle. Thank you to Terry for keeping the front entrance looking like someone was home. However, Rome was not built in a day so the yard will wait its turn.
When we went to bed last night, we found these between the top and bottom sheets; when we reported it today, they sounded like it was an everyday occurrence! It was obvious that the sheets had not been changed, yuk.

Finally managed to get a good photo of the entrance to Milo Farm and the name; Dad worked here for 12 months between leasing the servo in Cairns and getting a job on Colly Farms.
It's nice and green everywhere after the recent rains
