Yesterday…
Arrived at Dad's about 8.20pm after leaving home around 7am. Worked the day at Dandenong Office and headed off about 4.30. Bad traffic through city - peak hour plus protestors closed Swan st bridge.Dad had made slow cooked lamb shanks and Mary Marwood joined us for tea.
Saturday morning took time to pack up. Two cars into one. Hooked up the Tvan - Stuey's Cart - and we are off.
A quick stop at Mary's to see how she is coping with Facebook (I created an account for her last night) We enjoyed some home made soup followed by cuppa and shortbread with Mary.
Off to town for fuel and finally left Moama at 2.10pm.
Through Mathoura to Denilquin, home of the Deni Ute Muster. Here's a picture of a ute on a pole.
Onwards via Conargo, roads are quiet skies overcast.
We've booked a cabin in Griffith tonight and are travelling via The Kidman Way.
Arrived Griffith and settled into cabin. Leftover lamb shanks on toast for tea and early to bed for this little black duck.
We did get quite a nice sunset tonight but on camera rather than phone.
(OK so have tackled camera downloads)

A nice start to the trip... Enjoy! :)
