We are heading on to new roads again today. Not sure if we'll have any phone reception. 
Sadly we farewell Graham, Gail and Quilpie as they make their way south to visit family and we head north to follow the sculpture trail.
Traffic jam on the road into Aramac. 

We found a nice spot to make lunch beside a 1913 disused railway bridge in Aramac. 



















Followed the sculpture trail out to Lake Dunn. 
The lake is on private property and the views are beautiful, especially seeing kangaroos on the waters edge. There are 40 sculptures all made by Milynda Rogers from scrap metal. More are added each year. The trail is about 200kms long with 2/3 being dirt road. The road to the lake is 67kms of bitumen.
Cycling kangaroos and goanna.
Big ram.

The stone healing circle is an 'ancient sacred site connected to 6 others in the world. When you step into the centre -the eye of god- you are connected to the energies of all 7'

There were more sculptures we saw today but my phone decided it didn't want to work anymore 😏

Lake Dunn is beautiful. $10p.n. Camped right near the water. Spent a few hours stargazing again and saw quite a few satellites and falling stars.
