The Doc will head off to Melbourne in early March for work on the car and van. He had a quick trip to Dubbo over the last couple of days to help prep the van.

Some exploring was done on the way back visiting places like Kandos and Rylstone near Wollemi National Park. Plus using the back roads from Ilford down to the Great Western Highway east of Bathurst, dropping into places like Ilford, Wattle Flats, Sofala and Yarras.

There is still work to do to get the van ready, as the Melbourne trip is vital prep for the Kimberley trip – hopefully later this year.
