Erica awoke with a crook back a couple of days ago so just Trevor headed off to join Bob, Craig, Michael and his son Max for a few days of fishing in Coffin Bay National Park at the end of the peninsula at “The Pool” campground. She organised food etc even though Bob & CraigContinue reading “Coffin Bay NP 29/1/22-8/2/22”

Trevor and Erica’s Christmas Letter for 2021
Diments 2021 Christmas Letter
4/9/21 – The very last day
We woke up on a chilly morning and took a while to get going, but once we were awake we realised that this was the day that we would finally be home. We were both keen to be there already and there wasn’t going to be much that would stop us now. Instead of stoppingContinue reading “4/9/21 – The very last day”
3/9/21 The penultimate day. Streaky Bay to Caralue Bluff Conservation Park
We started off the day by setting off the smoke alarm in our cabin. In our defence I must say that the kitchen set up made it impossible to put the fry pan under the exhaust fan and the frypan was always destined to be smoky. We heard at least 3 other cabins do theContinue reading “3/9/21 The penultimate day. Streaky Bay to Caralue Bluff Conservation Park”
2/9/21-Made it to Streaky Bay
We had a vague plan to get to Talia Caves today, but the wind was strong, then the rain started and the weatherman was predicting thunderstorms. We decided to do the traditional “ shelter from the storm” move in imitation of the time we got a cabin at Streaky when we were swagging across fromContinue reading “2/9/21-Made it to Streaky Bay”
1/9/21- Back in SA
We were relieved to make it to the border and find that we were still allowed to re-enter our home state. With all that is going on with COVID closures (and especially truckers over these borders) we always had it in the back of our mind that we might miss our window of opportunity ifContinue reading “1/9/21- Back in SA”
31/8/21 Heading across the Nullarbor from Peak Charles
We packed up from our little bush camp in the shadow of Peak Charles and quickly checked out the start of the walk trail. It looks like the last part of the walk (to the top of the mountain) is a bit extreme. Apparently it is unable to be rated as it exceeds the walkContinue reading “31/8/21 Heading across the Nullarbor from Peak Charles”
30/8/2021 – Leaving Tozers – and a long drive to Peak Charles.
We had a big day ahead of us, so we were up in good time, but the Colwells were already gone when we surfaced. They really had a good early start!! We were a bit reluctant to be leaving Tozer’s, so I guess we did linger a little before we headed off. We headed outContinue reading “30/8/2021 – Leaving Tozers – and a long drive to Peak Charles.”
29/8/21 – Orchids and other beauties of the bush at Tozer’s Bush Camp
The first orchid flower was found right near our camper (a spider) and the next also very close (a leek orchid) . These both happened before we even headed out on our orchid tour. The tour started at a very reasonable 9:45am as they wait for the sun to be out and the orchids toContinue reading “29/8/21 – Orchids and other beauties of the bush at Tozer’s Bush Camp”
28/8/21 – Castle Rock, and finally we arrive at Tozer’s Bush Camp
We enjoyed our breakfast in the camp kitchen at the Porongurup Caravan Park before heading off again . The weather was looking OK for the moment, so we took our chances and headed off to walk the track to Castle Rock. The track was delightful. Just enough climb to know that we were alive withoutContinue reading “28/8/21 – Castle Rock, and finally we arrive at Tozer’s Bush Camp”
