This is Stockton lake just 6 kms from Collie. Collie is a big coal mining town & this lake was an open cut mine. Now it is a beautiful recreational lake & free camping. We are staying here till Saturday & then off the dance in town & stay in van overnite. Heading off to Nannup to visit some friends for couple days, before we head across to Boyup Brook for the 4 day Country Music festival from 16-20th Feb.
This morning Bob & I went for a walk right around the lake & along the cliff. The water is the most amazing blue, reminds me of the tropics or Greece.
Witchwae all set up, with waterfront views
The original entrance to the mine. Opened in 1927 & closed in 1960
The bush where the old mine entrance is located
Those Budgie smugglers have re-appeared. LOVE 'EM OR HATE 'EM!!!!
All the "Grey Nomads" camped up waiting for the weather to cool down before they head north for winter
Check out the colour of the lake AMAZING
