7.30am
23 degrees, clouds over the sun, cool breeze.
Flocks
of corellas are squawking reminding us of our time on the River Murray. As they
flew over they pushed the wind that we could hear the sound of the wind over
their wings. Heard it with a pelican too.
We
can hear sheep but can’t see them on the other side of the river. The trains
continue back and forth.
I
worked on my blog then read for a bit. Started Kimberley Sun by Di Morrissey which
is about the pearl industry in Broome – a sequel to her Tears of the Moon.
Steve
just relaxed though he did change the water filler pipe on the truck.
33
degrees at lunchtime.
Clouded
over after smoko. Had drinks enjoying the river view then went for a walk
across the bridge – upstream then downstream views.
Our
van hiding behind the trees.
Along
the dirt road to Wilkerson Park to check out an old church and cemetery.
Two
plaques on the picnic table.
A
flagpole to remember another member of the Wilkerson family.
Info
about St Saviour’s Church built 1862.
Lots
of old graves in the cemetery.
Chatted
with the other couple for a bit. Found this plaque for a chap who drowned as a
competitor in the 1991 Avon Descent – so sad.
Saving
lots of gas with the cold showers as the water is warmed in the pipes by the
sun!!
Clear
sky at 10pm – lots of stars twinkling.
