On The Road To Gundagai via Bowning and finishing at Wagga Wagga NSW
We take a road trip to Wagga Wagga NSW dropping into the country towns of Bowning and Gundagai seeing The Dog on The Tucker Box along the way.
The Dog on the Tuckerbox is an Australian historical monument and tourist attraction, located at Snake Gully, five miles from Gundagai, New South Wales as described in the song of the same name, but it is in fact located about 7.2 kilometres (4.5 mi) from the centre of Gundagai.The dog section of the monument was cast in bronze by Oliver's Foundry Sydney and its base sculpted by Gundagai stonemason Frank Rusconi. It was unveiled by the then Prime Minister of Australia Joseph Lyons on 28 November 1932 as a tribute to pioneers. The statue was inspired by a bullock drover's poem, Bullocky Bill, which celebrates the real life of a drover's dog that loyally guarded the man's tuckerbox (an Australian colloquialism for a box that holds food, similar to a lunchbox, but larger) until death.
2018 Regional Busking Championships - Gundagai NSW
Busking has always been either 'just for fun' or to 'earn a few bob' on the street doing what you like doing best - playing music.
But in Australia's regional areas, busking has become something to aspire to for local musicians - young & old - especially with the prizes and national exposure being offered.
We were lucky enough to be invited to the very first ANBC Regional Busking Championships held in Gundagai NSW in October 2018.
Gundy has a special place in history we'll look at soon. Meantime this short 'mini-doco' looks at the event and how it all started.
Return to Gundagai and the restored Dog on the Tuckerbox.

Curtin Springs Station
Curtin Springs has been home to the Severin family since 1956, when Peter Severin arrived with his young wife Dawn, their toddler son Ashley and 1,500 head of cattle.
When Peter turned to his wife to tell her this 500 square mile block of dirt was their new home, family folklore tells how Dawn replied “I’ve got news for you and it’s all bad!” Just after they arrived, they had one inch of rain and then it didn’t rain for nine years. In that first year just six people drove past Curtin Springs. For the first three years home was under the Bough Shed, which still stands today providing a dining area and a cool place for visitors to rest.
In the late 1950’s pioneering tourist companies began the first tours to Ayers Rock and there began the endless batches of scones and cups of tea served to the tourists. Curtin Springs was the first station in the region to develop the more substantial Wayside Inn tourist facilities.
Cattle numbers and management methods changed over the years, as did the tourist facilities at the Wayside Inn. A lot of hard work, heartache, tears and joy and thousands of visitors, have made Curtin Springs the place it is today. Curtin Springs is now over one million acres in size and stands as a testament to the passion and commitment Peter, Ashley and Lyndee Severin have made to Central Australia and the pastoral and tourism industries.
Curtin Springs demonstrates the balance achieved through producing beef (making the land productive) whilst protecting their million acre wildlife corridor.
The Rouseabouts
The Rouseabouts bush band was formed in 1978 from members of the Bush Music Club in Sydney and played around Sydney and NSW until 1980.
Founding members were David Johnson, Keith Snell, John Poleson, Bob Bolton and Ray Grieve. Later members were Chris Kempster, Bob Thompson, Len Neary and Declan Affley.
After playing at the Opening Day Ceremony of the Hartley Historic Village in NSW, they were featured on an audio-visual display at the Village Visitors Centre for many years.

Walla Walla Alive with Tourism
Walla Walla is located in southern NSW, Australia. Walla Walla engenders a real sense of community involvement led by the Community Development Committee and offers residents a uniquely Australian country lifestyle from a town located within an easy 20 minutes drive of the major regional centre of Albury Wodonga.
Explorers Hume and Hovell were probably the first Europeans to see the area on their expedition south to Port Phillip, (Melbourne) and they particularly noted the extensive grass cover and the potential for grazing. The town was settled in 1868/69 when 56 German settlers arrived in 14 covered wagons and two spring carts, having travelled 1,000km from Ebenezia in the Barossa Valley in search of land.
That German heritage survives today with Walla Walla home to the Zion Lutheran Church. Built in 1924, it is the largest Lutheran Church in NSW and seats almost 600 people.
Just north of Walla Walla is Morgan’s Lookout, a massive white granite rock formation used by the bushranger ‘Mad Dog’ Morgan as a hideout and lookout but today provides visitors with panoramic views of the surrounding countryside.
Also worth a visit is the Gum Swamp, a high conservation wetland located in the South West Slopes bioregion. It is home to many threatened species, including the White-bellied Sea Eagle, the Fishing Bat and the Squirrel Glider. The Gum Swamp Reserve Management Committee has been successfully undertaking revegetation work, in order to promote bird diversity within the Reserve and have received funding from the Environmental Trust and NSW Murray Wetlands Working Group to continue the revegetation program.
