2022 esCarpade Day 2 - Cootamundra to Blayney to Forbes

Well, for the second night in a row, the blog has decided to upload the photos in reverse order... <sigh>  Last night, Damian deleted and reuploaded them to fix the problem, however tonight he's far too tired, so you will have to read the blog from the bottom to the top to get it in the right order!

Dinner in Forbes had a solo artist to perform for the esCarpadians. 




Ben with his usual storytelling session, and the illustrious turkey award!





The boys heading to dinner...


Just about fixed...


Luckily Damian had a couple of spare exhaust hanger rubbers in the boot... Jason put them on.




Turns out it was the exhaust - a bracket had come loose!



Jason wanted to investigate a minor clunking noise...


Arrived in Forbes safe and sound!

















































Stopping at the afternoon fun stop...



















































































































































































































Checking out!


After lunch, it was Damian's turn for a drive!


VERY close together!


Sharky and 808 were parked very close together!


And the boys arrived in Blayney for lunch!




















Pit stop in a lovely little town...















































































At the Wyangala Dam.



Selfie time!


Time capsule that is dug up every 25 years, reviewed, added to and reburied!



























































Cars stopped, but plenty of assistance already there...

































One of the "two two's" with some mechanical problems...










Busted windmill...


















More roadworks!






















Wind farm... not too many turbines were turning!

















































































Jason was driving the morning session, with Damian navigating...















































No school visits this year, but the cars paraded past the school flashing lights, sounding horns and in Retro Rock-It's case - blasting 80's music!




Giggle looked a bit cold...



And they're off!


Day 2 driver briefing...



Court house across the road!


Then on to breakfast...


Coffee stop...


Checking the oil...




Damian was up bright and early, packing...


Welcome to the bottom of the blog, or in today's case, the top of the blog since there was a strange glitch that caused all of the photos to upload in the reverse order!

Start from here and scroll upwards, and enjoy the 655 photos from today!
