7.30
am 18.5 degrees, clear sky and strong cold easterly wind.
Wandered
over the scrapes nearby. I found a rock specimen which Steve broke up and
inside was a nice 0.16 nuglet. I had an ironstone rock from yesterday that had
gold bits in it.
Steve
went for a big walk swinging his detector – trying to lose some weight!!
A
front end loader rumbled by – must be a mining lease active near here.
3pm
29 degrees, lovely temp – rest time. Caught up on my blog.
Steve
got firewood ready for camp oven dinner.
We
walked down the track to check out the windmill and old camp. What a mess. The
windmill should be pumping water into the tank for the cattle but something has
broken at the top so it only goes clunk instead. The poor cattle are standing
around waiting!!
A
lady in a mining company ute drove up. She was going down to pick up the chap
in the front end loader. They work for Regis Resources who have a lot of leases
around here.
Clear
sky for dinner under the stars with lots of satellites and falling stars
entertaining us.
Getting
cooler quicker now so we are sitting a lot closer to the fire than we were the
last week!!
Closed
up the van as it is quite chilly. Heard some dingoes howl in the distance.
