Mon, 11th Feb, 2019 10 Mile Outcamp, Tarmoola Station, 60km north of Leonora, WA



7am 29 degrees, no wind and cloudy. The crows are very noisy this morning.

Tried ringing Tracy for her birthday – must be working so sent her a text and message on Facebook.

Steve got a new pack of Just Right out for breakfast but the box was broken so he carefully slid out the inner part and put in the old box. I said you won’t get that in properly and he said he was an expert. His mum used to bulk buy the Cornflakes when he was young and he would slit open the boxes and carefully slide out the inner bag so he could retrieve the toy inside. I need to start writing down his memories too, as I have been doing my life memories – hopefully one day our grandkids might read them and laugh too.

Got a message from Ray and Carol, heading over here in April. Starting near Kalgoorlie then up to Leonora so we might catch up with them somewhere.

Had our cuppas watching the birds using the new water feeder. We are seeing more birds now as the area is getting drier. The cattle are happily hanging around the yards wandering in to eat and drink.

40 degrees, sky clearing, with only a little breeze now and then.

About 11am the wind started blowing strongly from the west.

Rebecca and Clive rang for a chat – so lovely to hear from them. They did a drive around the Tablelands enjoying all the waterfalls after the recent rains.

Had lunch and enjoyed a quiet afternoon finishing off my 1000 piece jigsaw.

Steve having fun with the tablet, may as well make the most of having full time internet.

Time for a dip in our pool while we had our cuppas. Got my book out and continued with Terry’s amazing story of building a cattle station in NT, cooling off with a dip now and then.

7pm 37 degrees, the wind comes and goes.

Nice evening, dinner and movie.
