This episode is about The Middleton Pub, and Lester Cain who is the great publican out there. Please stop off if you're planning your trip between Boulia and Winton, or between Queensland and Alice Springs. There's some great historical items to visit out there too. In other news, the Outback Way Travel Journal is now available through the website at outbackway.org.au/shop We've also been down to Canberra for further lobbying with a delegation and Helen shares a bit about that. Helen speaks with Lester Cain, from the Middleton Pub. Lester tells us where Middleton is (170km from Winton and 190 km from Boulia), a bit about the town's history and how he came to be there. Helen and Lester discuss what's on offer at the pub, in the local area and the events that bring visitors to Middleton.
