Let's Go Get Lost (2024)Oil painting
by Trisha Lambi

A few years ago, we took a road trip from Darwin down to Adelaide and while we were in Coober Pedy, we did the Mail Run Tour. This tour offers a real Outback experience, travelling with an Australia Post contractor, delivering mail to the historic outback towns of Oodnadatta and William Creek as well as five remote cattle stations.

We stopped for lunch in Oodnadatta at the Pink Roadhouse, and I was struck by the neon sign that boldly declared its presence against the desert backdrop.

I loved the jauntiness of the sign – it seemed to stand as a symbol of courage, defying the harsh surroundings and becoming a metaphor for the resilience and spirit of the Australian outback communities.
