A great Free Camp spot!
I thought I would post a few photos of the Bollon free camping ground on the banks of Wallam Creek. We stayed a couple of nights there on our trip at Easter. Our granddaughters had a great time seeing the wildlife in the area. Us adults enjoyed the country hospitality and meeting some of the Ol' Locals and having a yarn. A very friendly place and the community provide toilets and free hot showers that are only about a 500 metre walk from where you camp. It is a great way to get travellers to stop and spend some dollars in the local businesses.
A great spot to camp under the gums. You just have to choose your site carefully so you aren't under some rather large dead limbs. Wallam Creek Roast Lamb in the camp oven - Yum!!! Toasted marshmallows for dessert was a nightly hit with the girls! The girls looking on in anticipation of some lobbies but I think the area has been pretty much lobbied out.

The girls exploring along the creek with dad.
I liked the shape and patterns in the leaves of this tree. It may be a type of Kurrajong.
Tez makin' some jaffles (or jiffies as I knew them as a kid) for lunch.
A nice damper made with coconut milk for afternoon smoko.
Still warm with butter and Golden Syrup - yum yum!!!
It wasn't long and there wasn't a crumb left.
Anyway I hope you enjoy seeing another little piece of our great Aussie bush.Jeff
Re: A great Free Camp spot!
that looks a great spot Jeff, and what a feast roast lamb topped off with damper and syrup! Neat looking leaves as you said on that tree.I'm having very slow time seeing the shots as I think I used our limit after viewing that 1 hour utube video on mongolian archery tournament.

Re: A great Free Camp spot!
Is there any better way to spend your time than camping with family? Great stuff, Jeff and the photos are top notch.
Lately, if life were treating me any better, I'd be suspicious of it's motives!
