Duaringa Queensland

Rocky Point Russell Island

The four Islands that make up the Southern Moreton Bay Islands are flood free, and we do not see those sort of floods that the rest of South East Queensland and Northern NSW experience.

These Islands are possibly one of the safest havens in South East Queensland, and remain undiscovered by a vast majority of Australians

Outback Drive…Birdsville Track to Jundah via Windorah

It started from a property called Clifton Hills, the largest cattle property in Australia, where a drilling team worked for 3 months to drill a new bore. The first bore had a problem when they reached either a cave or soft sand when the bore could not be stabilized, and an error of judgement droppedContinue reading “Outback Drive…Birdsville Track to Jundah via Windorah”
