Winton

We first visited Winton years ago for their outback festival. "You are crazy to go way out there. There's nothing there." our friends chided. We met a close friend who had done the trip by bus out thwre and had the best time ever. I won the Billy boiling competition and we laughed till we cried when they ran the dunny races.

Feats of strength, chopping contests of axe skill, loud music. It was a wonderful time to be remembered forever.

Winton has changed quite a bit in 20 years. The streets have been sculptured and many businesses now cater for the growing tourist trade as much as the traditional rural support.

Winton is still one of the places we enjoy visiting. The artesian bore water still stinks though.

If you ever waltz your Matilda out this way, be sure to drop in.Baca selengkapnya
