7.30am
15 degrees and the wind is back.
Rang
Malcolm to share the news of the gold. He thought it was great. He asked if we
were getting blown away as they are having horrific winds down there. After we
hang up the wind increased and got very strong and blustery. Rang the Tuckshop
girls to share our excitement too.
Steve
and Jeff headed off to scour the area better. I got a new book out and enjoyed
a quiet time reading as the wind whistled around the van making my windchime
sing.
No
gold for Steve but Jeff found a little 1grammer. Had their lunch and off they
went again but in another direction.
I
sent through the photos of the gold to Malcolm and Mike. Rebecca and Clive rang
so had a great chat with them. They head off tomorrow for their 8 week holiday
up to Darwin and around.
Jon
texted to say Bandit is having surgery tomorrow so I rang him back – nothing
too drastic, a cyst on his back near his tail. Hopefully all will be good and it’s
Jon’s wallet that will hurt the most!!
Lyn
and I had a few more games of Sequence. The wind has suddenly stopped and it
has warmed up a lot as the wind is now coming from the NE – straight off the
desert I reckon. It is so drying too, I feel like a prune and I get electric
shocks with the static electricity all the time.
Boys
back and no gold for Steve again – got too much yesterday. Jeff got another
little piece.
Steve
got onto Mike and Anne and they were most impressed with the photo of the gold
in Steve’s mouth – hoped he didn’t swallow it as it wouldn’t be nice to pass!!
Lovely
around the fire tonight as it isn’t as cold. Had an earlier dinner so Steve
could go for a night detect around the camp area. I read by book by the fire
till he came back – empty-handed sadly. Oh well, that’s how it goes.
NO
PHOTOS TODAY
