7.30am
21degrees in the van. Overcast with a cold wind.
Packed
up and headed back to the highway. Drove back towards Meeka then turned off to
the west and crossed the floodway at the headwaters of the Murchison River.
Drove down 1km to Bilyuin Pool. The cattle like it here.
Chatted
with a couple from Burpengary, near Brisbane.
Drove
further down the pool and found a nice spot as misty rain started.
Steve
went into his corner cupboard to get a long-sleeved shirt and found lots of
dust so got out the silicon and sealed up the cupboard as the dust is coming in
around the fridge.
Only
got to 22 degrees in the van with it all closed up as the misty rain got
heavier. Miserable and cold outside. Put the rain catcher on and filled a
bucket till the awning was clear then ran the water into the water tank.
Quiet
afternoon in the van reading as the rain fell. I can get reception here so went
onto the BoM site to check the radar. Showed rain on the coast but not over
us!! The east coast is getting lots of wild weather and rain.
Tried
ringing Charles but no answer. Rang Mike in Tassie and he said the weather was
wild down there too. Chatted about their trip to Palmer River in July.
No
fire tonight!!
