Long distance travel is difficult for me and we are already booked for Nundle, where there is a big Chinese festival over Easter. We will already be in that area for a couple of gem stone festivals, so the distances wont be too difficult (I hope).
So can I take a rain check please?
Deb, I'll add you to the list & if you manage to make it all the better. If not maybe next time.

Recently, we stayed at this free camp location & it's a great spot.
Amenities block with hot showers, at least 2 fresh water taps to top up your tanks... all for a simple donation.

Lake is about 5 klm out of town.
Wotcha think?
"tanks" here Chuck--- Looks better than the 40 Mile Beach area going on the 1st picture. I like the water aspect and the shower/toilet facility. What is the wind like over there ?. Is that a simple donation or an ample donation for the toilets/showers. Do you know what the day-night temps are at that time of year.
Keith.

Bob, are you a contender or is it a bit too far past Easter for you?

Here's a link to the BOM weather stats for May of this year:
http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/dwo/20140 ... 1405.shtml
You can see the min/max temps, wind speed/direction, rain, also 9am & 3pm temps for the entire month of May this year.
In a nutshell, for the week we plan to be there, the temps this year were lows of 3.7c - 10.1c & highs of 23.7c to 24.9c.
As far as the donations go - there is a built in letterbox typa thingy on the ablutions block, between the male & female entrances - to drop your donations in... or... we could make a combined donation - from the forum - with a note of thanks for providing such a pleasant area for us.
