Story
Another challenge awaits albeit less time consuming and dramatic than the last! Millie and I are joining our friends walking from Tilpa to Louth, although, as the time draws nearer, and the winter nights make one's own bed more attractive, it does beg the question of WHY??
Rebel is the current President of the Australian Opal Centre and I know the generosity of volunteered time, and effort, that has been given to a project which will have huge financial and scientific ramifications for our community and beyond. So, aside from needing to clear my head and re charge my own batteries by the banks of the Darling River, I want to support the efforts of some visionary women and men who view the wonder of opal at a different angle from the "norm".
I hope you will be able to add your support by sponsoring me to suffer blistered feet, aching muscles and bush camping for a great cause!!

Lightning Ridge Opal And Fossil Centre Inc
The Australian Opal Centre is an extraordinary national project being developed at Lightning Ridge in outback NSW, to showcase a world class collection of Australian opal, opalised fossils and vibrant opal field heritage. It will foster education, training, scientific research, tourism, industry and community cultural development, and revitalise regional economies across three states of Australia. The Australian Opal Centre is managed by Lightning Ridge Opal and Fossil Centre Inc, a not-for-profit organisation.
Isolated and disadvantaged communities have contributed over $850,000 in cash and donated items worth more than $2 million to the Centre’s magnificent national collection, acquired a breathtaking site and commissioned Glenn Murcutt and Wendy Lewin – two of Australia’s greatest architects – to design an energy-efficient building set to become a 21st century architectural icon.
This brilliant project is a gift to the world from the people of Australia’s opal fields. Now, they need your help to realise their vision. Give what you can, and we’ll create a priceless treasure for this and future generations.
