Fri, 21st Dec, 2018 10 Mile Outcamp, Tarmoola Station, 60km north of Leonora, WA



6am 21degrees, cool blustery NE breeze and a few clouds about.

Packed in the shopping bags while Bob and Margaret hooked up their van. Said our farewells – so glad they stopped in to see us. Will see them next year to go detecting somewhere else and hopefully find more gold.

We followed them out the track then headed off to Kalgoorlie. They are heading that way too but we can go faster without the van on. Good trip down. Stopped for a cuppa before heading into town. Picked up the sub tank and checked out the wreckers for a new mirror attachment but they didn’t have any. Steve’s fix-it job will do for the time being.

Did some shopping for bits and pieces. After lunch picked up the groceries. Got some stone fruit and ingredients for Rum Balls and fruit cake etc for Christmas. Even bought two mangoes and some lychees for us so we can feel like we are at home.

3pm headed back to Leonora. Drove up to the homestead to top up with fuel then we followed Kym and Glen back into Leonora to attend the Carols by Candlelight in the park. The lady handed out battery operated candles and they had the words on a TV screen so we call all sing along. Had a lovely time singing for an hour then we headed back home for a late dinner. Will unpack the truck tomorrow as we have all the meat in the fridge and the vegies etc in cooler bags.

NO PHOTOS TODAY.
