Log 13-10 Bedgerabong


Bedgerabong, pronounced b-jeer-u-bong

We only travelled about 80K’s down the road to Bedgerabong for the Country Music Campout. About 250 vehicles attended. Our days started with a poets breakfast where we bought bacon & egg rolls & a cuppa, then listened to walkups (people from the audience) doing poetry or jokes, it varied between brilliant & very ordinary. We could then move to another area to listen to country music till lunch, (walkups) then a break till about 2:30 when there was more music till 5:00, another break till 6:00 then music (with an occasional artist) & dinner.

This went on every day but our foursome broke it up a bit by travelling into Forbes for a bit of shopping, sight seeing etc. It turned out very well that we took the Suzuki as that was our only means of transport other than taking a motorhome into town.

It was a nice relaxing week but we had had enough country by the end & were glad to get back on the road. Our next trip was to Piliga, just another short hop where we became a threesome, losing yet another of our group as they were volunteers at the rally we were heading towards & had to get there early to help set up.

Sorry about the lack of photos’, not only did I leave the charger at home but also the camera so these are only phone photos’.
