Fri, 21st June, 2019 Bush camp near Mosquito Creek, east of Nullagine, WA (Anthony’s birthday)



7.30am 18.8 degrees overcast, no wind. Puddles of water everywhere. Won’t be driving anywhere today though Dave has to go to Newman to pick up his wife today so hopefully he won’t get bogged or they don’t close the road on him.

Each morning we look at our photos of 2 years ago and we are also looking at the ones from 3 years ago as we didn’t look at these last year while we were doing the desert track trip. It was raining at Lake Mason when we were there with Jeff 3 years ago. We had just left Quinns where we were detecting 2 years ago.

Quiet day playing games with the music rocking. Joined Ray and Carol in their van for a cuppa – very squishy underfoot walking over to their van.

Carol baked a cake in her newly fixed oven and brought us over a treat for lunch. I did my baking too and made my Nuts and Bolts for drinkies snacks. I am also taking a bowlful over for Dave’s birthday gathering tomorrow afternoon. I wrote out some of my recipes for Carol now she can use her oven.

Caught up on my blog – will upload then next week when we got into Nullagine again.

After lunch the sky cleared a bit and the wind picked up. At least we are getting some charge in the batteries from the solar panel now. Played a couple games of 3 to Kings.

Showed Carol how to play Take 2 using the Scrabble letters. It was one of the games that Suzanne and I played whenever we went camping.

Steve got some more timber and got the fire going early to dry out the wood so we can cook roast chicken and vegies in the camp oven.

Still a band of cloud around us on the horizon but overhead it has cleared. Chatted around the fire as the stars came out.

Cool breeze came up from the east while we waited for our dinner to cook but it was very pleasant out.

NO PHOTOS TODAY.
