7.30am
21 degrees, cloudy.
Did
my normal chores – chooks and horse poo.
Steve
started the generator so I could do my washing using Kylie’s front loader in
the house as I wanted to do the sheets, towels etc. Gave the van a clean too.
Steve
went off and checked the water points and put out some hay and grain for the
cattle.
The
sky has cleared and the wind is blowing well so the washing is drying quickly.
Steve whizzed down on the 4wheeler to the house bore to turn on the pump to top
up the house tank.
34
degrees in the van while we had lunch so got out the fan again. The cold snap
is over!
Played
a few games of Rummyking. Steve won 2 to 1.
Pottered
about in the afternoon. Steve secured an old windlass that Kylie had hanging
but one of the handles had pulled out and she was worried it might fall. He
found old chain to keep the authentic look. They have heaps of old bits and
pieces they have collected hanging off the fence and there is plenty more to
hang up near the two old cars Lance collected from the old township of
Barrambie near the mining area further north on the property.
Watered
all the garden – takes a while.
Had
drinks watching one of the many 4x4 DVDs that Daniel got for us from a school
fete he and Fran attended. I enjoy watching them but glad not to do anything
like their extreme 4 wheel driving!!
Warmer
evening with lots of bugs and moths about so must be more rain coming. Steve
hung a portable LED in the tree to draw them away from the van.
I
said we should be sitting outside to enjoy the stars as we haven’t since we
came back to the van. As I went up to put the portable phone on charge I
spotted a satellite whiz across the sky.
NO
