esCarpade 2015 Thank You BBQ

Saturday... sunny day...  time to load the family into Booger Mobile and head across to the 2015 Camp Quality esCarpade thank you BBQ at Bribie Island.


Photo-journaling the trip is the lovely Tricia - Damian's wife.


Damian's boys are stoked to be cruising in the mighty Booger Mobile...


Damian's looking lean and green as per usual...


And isn't it amazing how Tricia has somehow managed not to take a picture of herself?


Heading down the road...


Left turn...


Right turn then under the bridge, followed by another left turn...


Follow main road...


Out onto the highway, and somewhere up in those clouds is a glider...


Couple of exits later, it's off the highway...


Bribie Island turnoff...


Keep heading towards Bribie Island...


And still...


Onto the island (through the magic of the interwebs)...


Follow the esplanade towards the Apex Park...


Past the caravan park...


Good ice-creams from the shop just to the right of this picture...


And parked in the shade!!


Thank you placemats...


Pair of good looking roosters perched on a Booger Mobile!! (Angus wasn't able to make the thank you BBQ as he rudely preferred to attend his own birthday gathering with his family!!)


Damian with his safety socks shining brightly...


And those who made the BBQ gathered for a group photo...


Time to head back home...


Bribie Island Bridge hiding behind some trees...


There it is!!


Getting closer...


And over the bridge...


Glorious day out on the water!!


And Damian looks pretty pleased with himself, too!!


Past the newly opened Sandstone Point Hotel... Damian must hit them up for a donation sometime!!


Lots of traffic heading home...


The plane... the plane!!


Onto the highway...


Uh oh... crash ahead... good thing that's a fair distance after the turnoff Damian will be taking!!


Astute readers could probably follow these photos to Team Booger Mobile HQ!!


Time to exit the highway...


Turn right...


Turn left...


Cruise for a while...


Follow main road...


Turn right, under bridge...


Turn left, go straight...


Follow to T intersection...


Turn right...


Turn right...


Booger Mobile checking in!!


It was great to catch up with those esCarpadians who were able to make it to Bribie Island, and to meet Ben, the latest fundraising person for Camp Quality South Qld... 

Stay tuned for further adventures as Damian works out how to meet the $5000 minimum in 2016!!

esCarpade 2016 - Let's Get the Party Started!!

Damian has registered Booger Mobile for the 2016 Camp Quality esCarpade, going from Bateman's Bay to Griffith, via Phillip Island!!

This year, Damian feels that he will be struggling to even make the minimum donation target of $5000, having lost a couple of his large fundraising events.

If you can share this link: 


and head over to it to make a donation if you can, you can help Damian raise enough money for entry to this year's esCarpade!!
