Well this makes sense. Easier on the shearer. Easier on the stock. What’s the AWU think about this? Those old shearing sheds get very hot in Summer. All sorts of health risks.
What a stunning photo!
Try and stay cool today also, love the photo.
Great thinking 99. BTW love the photo.
Great idea 👏🏻
Stay hydrated
Good thinking Maxwell Smart quite often on bright moonlit nights I would walk my sheep back to their paddocks and be finished by daylight. Found the sheep were far better behaved too and walked at a very nice even pace. Far less stressful for everyone, my liver in particular. Very rarely had to put the dawg out either
Awesome photo. 👍
Beat the heat but how were the bugs
Dave Whillock next set up on the list?!
Cracking Photo Liz
Take care...
Yes I remember back when was at Pine Camp Station driving in the mob it was bloody hot sheep heading to every shaded tree magpies would fly from the tree when the sheep arrived some just dropped from the sky I remember having hanky over your nose so you could breathe from the heat and wind but job had to be done to get them shed for sheering
That's sensible
Very sensible!
How about #theSerenity of a billabong campsite along the Darling River? There are a load of great locations to set up camp for wonderful scenery and memorable experiences on the #DarlingRiverRun. This photo was taken during sunset at one of the billabong campsites located at Trilby Station, Louth.

What a beautiful photograph…
Magnificent!!
We parked our van at the weir at Tilpa for a night many years ago. There would have been 60 odd pelicans fishing there. It was a great evening sitting beside our fire watching them and the other birds all come in for evening drinks
So serene.
These campsites are just exceptional
Milparinka, Corner Country NSW… so much much to see. ... See MoreSee Less




Thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Milparinka recently
SO many changes!! When I last visited (about 2009), there was just the old buildi gs, a closed hotel and NO signage or infrastructure like now!! Keen to revisit!
Just spent a couple of days here & a huge amount of work has been done Our first visit was back in 2001. Was like a ghost town then Definitely worth a visit & stay a couple of days Good Pub & CP is amazing with friendly managers 👍😀 PMK3Australia
Volunteered at the Heritage centr in Sep 2015. Visited again earlier this month. Found Derrick looking after the place. The improvements are brilliant. Ruth Sandow has done a wonderful job getting finance for the new works. Well done all.
Jeff McVicar one of my most favourite places and one of the best snittys I’ve had at the pub. Can’t wait to get back there 🥰🥰

Recent guests Kayode, Christina and her parents (visiting from Germany) loved their stay with us. “Just wanted to say again we really loved our stay in the overseer’s cottage. My parents also loved it and they learnt so much about the outback. The tour at Dunlop station was so much fun, and your Mud Map tours were also great, especially exploring the old homestead. Hopefully we’ll be able to come again in the future and I’ll certainly be recommending Trilby Station. “ ... See MoreSee Less




What a great recommendation for a fantastic outback adventure!!
We took an English friend out there, our second time, and she loved it all.
Yes it a great area to relax 👍🏻
It sure is a special place

Not forgetting, if pushed too hard, the *sure to happen* lamb break occurs, that’s when the ball of wool really unravels, tempers fray and bedlam prevails. 🙄
I hate herding sheeps. Mostly
Lois Pelecanos what a contrast with Eastbourne
Dunlop Station have closed for the summer, allowing Kim a well-earned break to tackle other things on her To Do list. It’s an amazing tour and great camping and they’ll reopen next year.Thank you to everyone who has supported Dunlop in 2023
I am closing for a break while it is warm and in our quiet time of the year ☀️
Time to catch up on a few behind the scene jobs and spend some time in the garden, maybe some bookwork ( may need some chocolate to help me !!!)
If we are lucky...some rain 💦
You can still send through enquires and bookings during the summer 0458472698 Kim
Text is best...just in case I’m out in the paddock 👨🌾🐑🌸
See you all for another year of camping and tours in 2024 🥂

Enjoy your break. We loved our visit to Dunlop in June this year.
Can’t wait to have a look one day
Liz, hope to see you, Dunlop and others for our 2nd visit (2015 first visit) in 2024. Still working through the hows and whens. Want to go up Nth to Mt Isa and beyond through Cunnamulla.
Enjoy your break Kim and especially some chocolate!!!
Been a few yrs would like to get back out there soon
This looks promising for us doesn’t it. Let’s hope the weather forecasters have it right! If rain does eventuate our unsealed roads will close until dry, so bear that in mind OK. Google Bourke Shire and Central Darling Shire road condition reports for accurate info (as opposed to Live Traffic). ... See MoreSee Less



Everything crossed for you Liz..... and us
Well I hope I hope dubbo get some
Fingers crossed for you 🤞
🤞
Let’s hope so Liz. Would be a great early Christmas present to you all.
Hope you get a nice rain.
Did you get any of the rain or still waiting for the weather to come?
Hope the rain is good. Heard last night that all Outback roads are tar sealed. Who believes a Politician 😜
It does Hope he is right
Fingers crossed.
Hope it’s right
Luke Morris
Good luck 🌧️
Hope the rain comes
Fingers crossed. Hoping 🌧️🌧️
Had 40 mil in town today
Fingers crossed
Andrew Derry
Fingers crossed Liz.
Fingers and toes crossed for a couple of slow release inches for you and the neighbours.
Hope you all get a good fall
Larne Manx, hope you have your floaties on!!!
Just because Cobb Highway is now sealed to Wilcannia does not mean ALL our roads are now sealed!
Lucky I’m patient!! 4mls here, but 41 in Bourke. There’s another storm cell to the west I’m pinning my hopes on. In the meantime it’s watering the garden as usual, just in case.
Catriona Murdoch looks like rain
