After a very wet and foggy start to the day the group, minus Allan, met at Maccas at Lithgow. Gary, Elke and Ken had stayed the night at Lithgow with Jenny and I and Schuey travelling from home after a very early start. The trip over the mountains was pretty easy with little traffic.
We left Lithgow at about 9:00AM and headed for Dubbo with a stop for a very welcome coffee in Molong. At Dubbo we were met by some other club members, Rick as well as Karen and Richard from Forbes and Orange. Given the very wet weather we made a decision to stop in the caravan park in Narromine, this was preferable to getting camping gear wet on the first night. Jack Cooper from Narromine who has just finished a trip in to Arnhem Land met us to share his experiences.
An early start tomorrow will see us of to the Warrego River to camp - weather permitting.
