We left home about 1030 and stopped at Keith for lunch before heading on to Serviceton. At Serviceton we enjoyed a break and caught up with Judith and Graham Carter. Graham was working his way through the remaining 270 sheep that needed shearing. The next stretch was a bit hairy as we took the backContinue reading “Adelaide to Hamilton 27/7/22”

A quiet book for Sophia
Sophia turned one last Friday. Our first grandchild is one already!! For months now I have been working on a “quiet book” to give to her for her birthday, and I was really pleased to actually manage to get it done in time.

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”
16/8/21 Kalbarri National Park.
It wasn’t far to get to Kalbarri National Park from Warribano chimney. As we entered the eastern part of the park we were greeted by a huge range of vegetation along the road.

10/8/21 Bruboodjoo to Carnarvon
It kept on raining through the night, but the day dawned clearer and we even had some blue skies. The ground was less soggy- which was a good thing. We paid the caretaker and headed out towards Coral Bay on the track which was sometimes rocky, wet, rutted and sandy. Eventually we hit the bitumenContinue reading “10/8/21 Bruboodjoo to Carnarvon”

30/6/21 Four wheel driving at ElQuestro
We had a few household chores to do this morning so Trevor cleaned out our storage boxes, dried out liners and repacked while I washed clothes.

Lots of birds here to enjoy. Driving on, we agreed toContinue reading “21/6/21 day 11- rellies on the Tanami”
20/6/21 A day on the Tanami
Today we spent all day on the Tanami. It was a late start ( after 11) due to getting up a bit later and some repairs required for Al and Zita. We had company for a while before we left-travellers going the other way whose brains we picked. Their bike carrier needed fixing and CraigContinue reading “20/6/21 A day on the Tanami”
