That's Barney Rubble in the background just catching up on some news via his hi-tech stone phone. Foreground is one of our favourite entrants from the TWODOGZ team.
Big Sky country out this way. Yup. A yawning landscape of dry, flat farmland and parched, rocky expanses became the backdrop for this afternoon's driving adventure. Long, straights of ochre sand and compacted clay were under wheel as we zoomed through back country on our way to Lightning Ridge.
The journey brought us to the tiny township of Collarenebri (population just shy of 500 people) where a fuel stop created mild panic and general mayhem for the service station employees. Kids swarmed the cars as the towns first ever traffic jam continued.
Meanwhile the long road and the team of esCarpadians were stirring up dust clouds that blanketed us as we snapped pictures en-route. Trevor, the ace photographer, caught the action from a variety of angles while I assisted on the road-side pics for maximum sweat, sun stroke and dustiness. Pictures were taken from the lips of an empty dam, the only elevation in the broad horizons.

We struck Lightning Ridge's broad streets and opal mined landscape in the early afternoon before retiring to our various hotels.
Wow I have loved keeping up with the esCapadians and your travels. Greg my DH is one of the officials in his car OV3 so if you could sneak in a photo of Greg and Michael on the blog I could see just what these two are up to.
