Lightening Ridge

Business Trip with a Difference

It is a long way to pick up the bits and pieces needed to mount an exhibition! I am in an outback motel ‘living it up’ at Lightening Ridge. I have come to pick up this Milk Can.

All my trips are not just about building my business, which will eventually be an Art Gallery. The trips are also about defining my artistic process. I missed so many photo opportunities last night because I was driving. I snapped this one when I reached LR.

I will get out to the outlook tonight and capture images I couldn’t take while driving. I will meet a lady in Moree at lunchtime and pick up a milk can for $290. Seems expensive? That is the market price for ‘milk can’ because they are difficult to find. Even if you do find one, people will not let them go.

To justify such a long trip to pick up an item – I need to fit in a fair bit of creative work. Stay tuned.

Bollon is a Beautiful Town in Outback Queensland

Posted on February 25, 2024 by Comic_Jo

Built on the Bollon River, the main street is lined with trees, and gums line the river in the background.

Bollon is a town where travellers need to be self-starters to find something to do. Kayaking, fishing, and camping in the peaceful surroundings, Bollon is a place to relax and unwind. More to the point, it is a crossroads to the townships nearby. Coming from Cunnamulla, travellers turn right and travel through Dirranbandi or go straight ahead and land in St George another beautiful river town.

Meals can be enjoyed at the hotel or the local cafe called “Deb’s Cafe”. I enjoyed a hearty breakfast there today for under $25.
