Saturday 6th June 2015.
On Thursday I was lucky enough to be down
where they land the helicopters when not out mustering. They being a youngish
girl & her partner who use Indee as a base most of the time. When she landed
and unloaded her swag and pack etc, she beckoned me over and offered to take me
for a quick (3 minute) flight over the immediate homestead area. Of cause I did
accept without any hesitation. It was a bit difficult to quickly line up a
photo shot, so I more or less just kept shooting out of the open door, and a
couple through the windscreen. Canopy.
There is still a lot of water laying around here and still some on the road
in out nearly to the Turner river. Grahame has been out yesterday and today
grading the tourist road and it is like a highway most of the way. There is
still a few inches of water running over the crossing. We have been getting
campers in again over the last few nights.
We just had a Skype call from Colin, he is in Peru and heading to Quito,
Ecuador (today). Other than general day to day goings on, I can’t think of
anything else to report, except that is real short sleeves & shorts dress
the order of that day, very nice. 18 deg. over night with 30 during the day.
Sorry to upset the Southern & Victorian people.
Cheerio for now.
