Well done!
These little buggers delight in rain so they can dig up the place! It’s clear skies and beaut weather again now after a good drenching (37mls) of rain on Thursday. Bourke and Cobar to Louth roads are now both open to light traffic, but Louth to Tilpa west side (so past us) is still closed at this stage. We’ll update you once it’s open ok.
Love our unique wildlife! I know they can be destructive…they are so strong….upturn our pavers, dig up the garden…🥴🥴but it is their home too.🥰🥰
So disappointed we couldn’t get out there. Would have been the last time we had all the kids together for about the next 3 years.
Yay..see you in 2 weeks trilby station.looking promising we can continue with plan A 😄😄 Penny Foxwell
Lovely contrast with the lush green grass in your garden.
What’s the difference between a porcupine and a police car ?
Echidna pricks on outside eh ??
With all unsealed roads currently closed and Louth Races cancelled, our guests enjoyed a complimentary morning tea and shearing shed tour this morning, since they were unable to drive in to Louth for the school fete, morning tea, lunch and auction.
The track around our campsites is still very sloppy so we’re running people backwards and forwards to the showers in my little buggy, as well as supplying fresh drinking water and dry firewood where needed. And North West Helicopters will be popping in this afternoon for scenic aerial tours.
Scones were delicious, the shearing shed is fantastic and we don’t mind spending a few more days than anticipated here.
Sorry about the washed out races, but in true country style your community has risen & made a go of mother nature’s obstacles. Well done & congratulations 👏
Mother Nature certainly knows how to disrupt well laid plans. Liz you certainly know how to turn what’s not in your control around and give the guests a positive experience. Luckily we left Sunday before the road closures.
Wow. What fabulous service. Your guests won't be too disappointed surely. Scones look great.
Good on you Liz. Your guests are receiving great hospitality that they won't forget. When life gives you Lemons, make Lemonade! 🍋👍🏼
So glad the the Outback Car Trek could help the school back in June
I had the privilege of staying at Rose Isle station at Loath a few years ago. Wonderful people. Enjoy your time.
What luck being stranded with you folk at Trilby!
What a great summer you and other stations in the area are going to have 🙂
Liz certainly looks after everyone. We had a great stay at Trilby.
Great place to be flooded in! We had a great stay!
So sorry to hear about the cancellation, Liz. Looks like you’re making the best of it, as you always do!
Making do at home when you can’t get to Louth.
Yes. There were a lot of people camped there on Wednesday when I was there and it started raining Thursday morning. It is bitumen a lot of the way from Louth to Bourke on the eastern side of the Darling, but kilometres of unsealed in places this would be the best way out once the dirt bits dry out. Other roads out of Louth are unsealed.
Looking good Liz, wonderful hospitality, scones would go down a treat. Getting so much rain here also...3 inches since Monday. Take care..keep out of the mud xx
Looks like a great place to be stuck!!!
Amazing job Liz!
U have been busy Liz spoiling all of them we can’t wait to get back out there again
Great job Liz, They won't leave.
Liz you always make a difficult situation pleasant for your guests. An experience I'm sure they will remember and talk about for a long time. ❤
What a place to get rained in!
The spirit of the outback at its best
Those scones look delicious always fantastic times at Trilby even in the rain!!!!
Great place to be stranded
You do an amazing job
The Louth Turf Club have officially called it …
Saying out loud….. ‘oh Nooo’. So disappointing for all of the planners, patrons, accommodation hosts…….Hope you can enjoy a few beers despite this outcome.
John and I feel for you. So much work put into it. We have had many a happy times at those races. Just a brilliant outback race meeting where up to 7000people arriving by air, car and whatever means they can get there. Best of luck for a good recovery in 2023.
Oh nooooo! That’s so awful to read.. all that planning & hoping, once again.. very disappointing for the community..& visitors planning to visit for a spectacular event. 😕
So disappointing and so close too 😔
Sad news. Well pub stocked, good go to the pub in the mud
Bad luck fellas but a great rain
So sorry to hear this. Hope you have better luck next year.
What is that old saying - things happen in threes! How disappointing. See you next year. We will get there eventually.
Oh dear that’s sad news for everyone Kathy at the pub.
Sooooosad for all involved! I have such great memories of those days. Thinking of you Liz 🍷🍷🌹
Oh no. How disappointing. So close too.
So disappointing, given the preparation put in. 🥲
Good for mud races!
We are sorry for you all we know what efforts and investment are put into such an event !
Maybe you guys could try boat races
Sorry to hear your bad news better luck next time. Enjoy your party.
Liz this is heartbreaking for all of you. So sorry to hear.

Just down right sad, nothing else to say😢
What a shame
Wow how Rotten is that Liz Murray Kim Chandler Karl Boede 😎🤦🏼🤦🏼🤦🏼🥲🥲
Has this event ever been cancelled before, or is it the first time. Been to this iconic event several times
Yes, there’s a rain front passing through Louth now, but the forecast is for clear skies and sunshine from later today. The races have not been cancelled.
Bourke Shire have closed their roads as a precaution so please stay put for now ok. We’ll keep you updated.
