HH Day 8 : Mt Chambers Gorge to home 06 (Quorn and home)

The main road south towards Hawker.
View from Willochra towards Quorn and the Devil's Peak.
(Foreground used for scenes in "Robbery Under Arms").
Our old home in Quorn - still pretty much as we left it
but now with one of the street signs that John advocated when on District Council there.
On the road south through Wilmington. Melrose etc. (our favourite route) -
rain squalls, this rainbow and a visit to the "Stone Hut Bakery"
to buy some of their special pies for tea and a couple of bottles of
"The Ghan" Southern Flinders Ranges Shiraz
to celebrate completion of a wonderful trip.


That's it ... "Finito", "Ala wiyaringu" ...
If we could we'd go right back and do it all again, only take longer this time.
There were so many beautiful campsites where we would like to have stayed a few days -
so many places off from our route that we would like to have visited -
so much of our wonderful country still to explore.

  1. Dear Beth and John,
    I discovered your page whilst searching for photos of Willochra Plain..I would like to chat with you regarding the possibility of using your picture labelled "View from Willochra towards Quorn and the Devil's Peak" for a CD cover design. If you don't mind, could you kindly email me at glenkau@gmail.com to discuss this further? Thanks very much. Regards, Glen. p.s.(Love that Stone Hut Bakery - great crust on the pies too!)
