7am
28 degrees, clear sky and gusty wind.
Chris
and Mickey headed off early with the two dogs. I have 4 chooks (only 2 are
laying) and the cockatiels to feed.
The
two guest left so I stripped the beds and put on the washing. Then cleaned the
rooms and following Christine’s teaching shaped the end of the toilet paper!!
Hot
dry wind so the washing didn’t take long to dry so remade the beds and it all
looks neat and tidy again.
Steve
is looking after the sprinklers as it is bore water so he had to check the tank
is full and top it up etc. Also they have a bio-something system, uses all the
grey and black water, which goes onto some of the garden beds.
Put
on the air conditioning and checked out Foxtel – all though channels but there
wasn’t much we wanted to watch. Steve found the Aussie Prospectors so watched
few of those. It showed a chap working out near Leonora and showed a chap,
Darren, who was doing mustering out there which is the name of the chap who had
Tarmoola Station where we are going.
Rang
the Tuckshop girls to say hello as a photo of 2 years ago for today showed Dot
and myself with a Christmas cake at Tuckshop. Their air conditioner is working
well thank goodness as they said it was so hot. Looking forward to the school
holiday break.
After
lunch rang Rebecca and Clive to congratulate them on their little grand
daughter, Ava, and to hear about their trip to PNG. They got to see a volcano
spewing out some ash etc – luckily they weren’t too close. They head to NZ
Friday next week to see Ava.
Rang
Mum for a nice long chat. All good. Val better after getting the fluid out of
her system.
3pm
40 degrees in the van but we are nice and comfortable 25 degrees in the house
with the air conditioner on!!
Saw
all the fires on the news which we haven’t seen in a long time. Rang Erica and
Terry to make sure they were ok.
Lots
of photos on Facebook about the fires and Lyn and Jeff had commented they had a
close call in Rockhampton with the fires getting close.
Dinner
watching TV – getting a good dose as we probably won’t have this luxury in the
next place.
