We went down to a camping ground called RustyPheasant for a few days, we booked it through Hipcamp.
The camp itself is on the Barron River and was once a tabaco farm, but now just hobby farms though.
We met Tonina who is the owner, and after talking to her she told me of her first attempts of cooking with camp ovens. I told her about us here and she has now joined up to learn from us.
The camp it self is a place I will stay at again, as it had good facilities but you need to have to be a little self sufficient as there is no power or drinking water.
Bonnie and I shared our cooking with friends who came with us, hut I did take a few photos, but not as many as I thought.
Scoones for afternoon tea, and pizza one night for tea. Pizza went well, lucky I did get a picture as it went as fast as it came out of the oven. I made them that shape to fit in the oven.

When Sharron and I stayed with you back in 2016 you were building the chassis for Robustus .
You have come a long way since then. Looks to have turned out a great camper. Well done John.
Cheers Brian.

Bonnie and I are off camping for a few days. Going Over to Tinaroo Dam, which is full with 500m going over the spill way.
We will be back for the weekend, as we have a few people coming over for a party on Saturday night. Planning on giving the camp ovens a bit of work.
