Nothing Beats Queensland

Queensland - it's time for a road trip

Nothing Beats Queensland

Nope, you won't beat Queensland for a warm and sunny getaway.

The roads are open, the sun is shining and now is the time to visit!  (To those in the Southern parts of Australia - save on electricity and let Queensland's sun warm you up!)

The floods are long gone and the landscape is looking fantastic. If you've made plans to come to Queensland this year, don't delay them! And if you haven't made plans to visit, you'd better come and see what you're missing out on.

There's plenty of work for those looking for it, and the list of things to do is just getting longer. The roads are open and trafficable and Queensland is waiting for you to arrive (well we certainly can't wait to have a drink with you!)

So pack up your caravan and we'll see you soon in sunny Queensland!

What's happening down the paddock?

Out of adversity comes opportunity. That's definitely the case down the paddock at Riversands.

Quite a few trellis posts (the ones that are up and down every row) needed replacing after the floods. The ground swelled which has caused some of the posts to dislodge and lean over. So we thought 'while we're fixing the posts, let's take the opportunity to plant some new vines.'

Here's the juice from the vines
