Dubbo Visit - June 2023



Weekend of 24-25 June 2023
Outside of Dubbo, NSW

My brother David, his wife Colleen and I spent the weekend staying with/visiting my eldest son Josh and his delightful wife, Sam. They live about 220 kms / 136 miles west of where I live, on a country property of about 266 acres / 107 hectares.

Perfect soul-refreshing time. So relaxing, and we were made to feel completely welcome and at home. Love 'em like crazy! 💕

Josh and Sam will turn 30 this year

Tigger, too!


They have their own Hill Lookout they call "The Rock"
(It's granite country)

Josh and Mal looking at the backhoe/tractor that Josh's Pa (Granddad) basically re-built for them

Josh's Pa [Granddad] used to drive this actual truck when he was young. Josh and Pa salvaged it and placed it here

Pa's original delivery truck, compete with copies of the original rego plates, too.

Sam: "I like RED cows!" [laffs]
They have about 12 cows at the moment.


They are always upgrading their fencing when they get the chance

The endless task of rebuilding and clearing around old fences with an electric current [for the cows]

Insert "Proud Papa Moment" here - I am very proud of what they have achieved!
