We've had several days off as we went to Rubyvale to catch up with Jean's high school best friend Louanne. We stayed an extra day and left today Thursday to come to Blackall in the Outback.
Jean had a fantastic time with Louanne who she hadn't seen for 45 years. We'll go and visit her when we get to South Australia in a couple of years.
We walked around the clubhouse to check it out. Emma came out to see who we were.
Emma said it was fine for us to park the caravan at the club and that we could hook up to water. We didn't need power.
Emma was doing some cooking so Jean was able to get in and take a photo of the clubhouse.
There's a sign out the front that says they are sponsored by the Blackall Magpies.
There's a little outdoor area with a barbecue.
With a nice verandah which overlooks the green.
We saw a sign that said social bowls is on Wednesday morning. We missed it by a day so we have to just roll up today.
There's one grass green. Emma said a few weeks ago they had to dig it up.
The Big Red coffee house is just across the road.
There are cute little old-fashioned shades.
The green is still a bit patchy but it rolls well - if somewhat slow!
Jean had the first go.
She was happy with her grass - weight not so much!
Mal ventured out.
He did a little better.
It was very slow so Jean was happy she eventually got her weight right - and got shot!
Of course Mal couldn't let that rest!
Blackall - so slow but fun to rollup!
