Bye bye Winton, Middleton ran Dry, on towards Longreach
Winton can only be described as charming It is a very laid back country country town and suits my new life style greatly As described in the previous blog this place is famed for its “mysterious” lights known as the Min Min We travelled towards Longreach with sign that promised us fuel in the next 170 kms When we got to this old outback place the fuel had dried up years ago! IF you enlarge the picture of the Bowser you will notice the glass meter is chock-a-block with dead insects !! We had no choice but to carry on and approx 20 kms before hitting Longreach we ran out of fuel !! BUT being very aware of this happening we carry extra fuel (enough to get us out of trouble and into Longreach !!) If nothing else our travels have taught us how to prepare for emergencies AND there is always help on hand (we treasure our CB radio !!)
