Darlington Point Caravan Park
1905 Paddle Steamer Lift Bridge. It has been moved from the Murrumbidgee River to the entrance of the park. It's been a while since the Lonie Rangers have blogged. Dave's been busy with poetic ramblings and I with photographic pursuits. Due to popular demand we have resurfaced. This time I'll be adding short blurbs with snaps (not photography) and Dave will add special issues to interest, delight and tickle your fancy I'm sure.
Darlington Point, you may wonder where, what and particularly why?
A small town on the Murrumbidgee River, 35km south of Griffith. We've been camping along the river for the past month and it started as a raging current up stream and has been dwindling the further we travel down stream. This is due to the Murrumbidgee Irrigation Canals pumping 1.2 megalitres of water out to water crops.
Why do we stay here for over two weeks? Beautiful walks along the river, tracks to bike ride, a gentle current to kayak up stream and cruise down and heaps of dirt bush roads to drive and discover other little oases along the river.
Yes it's a busy life!
