Funny you should ask that. We were just discussing this on the weekend as we are planning ahead for when we get back to Australia and finish the American Road Trip series. We have ear marked Moree for a definite place to go once we are ready to resume our Australian episodes in 2025. Stay tuned!!

Wow, that's fantastic! Thank you for tuning in, and I'm really glad you liked it. I might have stumbled over some names in this episode (I was a bit jet-lagged). I hope you'll enjoy the rest of our American road trip series. After this series is done, we'll be back with our Australian content, and I hope you'll join us for that too. It'll give you a taste of what you might experience if you do visit someday.

Oh, I’m glad you are teaching your son of Australia’s history. I’m actually working on a research project and writing a book on the topic of how the gold rush started in Australia. I can’t reveal key details before publication, but I will say that the story we were taught in school about Hargraves is not quite as it seems. But I must keep this under wraps until I have formally published my findings. Thanks for subscribing. - Heather.

@doubledee9675 Ай бұрын
We took that route once. As you say, it's a very scenic drive through great country. Our problem was that we live in Sydney and this journey meant an overnight stay at either Armidale or Tamworth - the journey was too long for a comfortable day trip.
@MinutesWithMates Ай бұрын
Yes in that scenario, it may well be. For those of us who live in either Narrabri or Armidale, it’s a very comfortable day trip. Many people take this route with their campers or caravans, as they are spending more time cruising around. So it certainly does work well for many people who are in the area or who want to take this route with their campers. It’s actually a very common thing to do and we always see a lot of campers and caravans on this route. 😊

What a difference 30 years makes since I was last there. The town looks like a gentrified going concern now. Anyway when I was there, I found lots of old workings North East of town in the hills, hand dug horizontal mining tunnels etc, people still chasing gold seams adjacent to the various creeks and entrants. I think it was at Lucky Strike Mine. Cannot remember names anymore.

I used to drink with an old bloke from Nundle, Ed Martin, He has since passed away, but one of the things he told us about his youth was that on Armistice Day 1918 he rang the church bell in the town to signify the war was over. He was about 7 at the time. He rang the bell until a grown-up took over from him, after which the rope broke and the bell fell silent for a time. But that was one day he always remembered.

My Mum's side of the family were one of the first families up around Nundle/ Walcha/ Nowandoc, spent many summers logging wood with dad to stock up our great grandparents in the winter (late 1980's), i do miss those times. Plenty of time in the bush around Nundle with Dad & Pop shooting, bagged plenty of foxes & the odd Deer or wild sheep/ goat, and plenty of snowy cold winters at Walcha with great grandparents, doing odd jobs on their farm
