CUNNUMULLA to HUMBUG CREEK via Bourke, Nyngan
A very brisk morning start to the day today. Our focus now is on going home so we did not go sightseeing much anywhere along the way as we had visited Burke and Nyngan on previous trips. The distinctive features today were the sheep stations,
cattle stations,
and occasional canola fields.
The scenery is more varied and very very colourful and picturesque in places.
Lovely trees with distinctive trunks lined the main street of Nyngan.
We decided to bush camp near the lovely Humbug Creek. It was too cold to set up tables and chairs outside. The winter doona was truly in use now. What a quick change in weather as we moved further south.
We met the owner of the adjacent property. It is hard to comprehend that this creek last flowed 10 years ago and until this year had been dry. It started to rain in this area last Xmas day and they have continued to get rain since then. The creek looks like a small river. There was lots of water flowing through it.
It was very peaceful here.
