Rent a house and you will be able to drive to Stanthorpe for work every day (30min drive or so).

And its only a 3hr drive to get to brisbane on the highway.
I think there is actually an observatory out that way somewhere - down the Ballandean road. Nice and close to some reasonably good wines as well.

I was in Mitchell a few months back on a grey nomad trip to Longreach and was impressed by it as a town. It's a bloody long way from anywhere though.

Of course there is always Esk and/or Kilcoy. And you can set your rig up here on the TenChain site if you want.
