The new Optus Stadium....

Tac is out the front ready for a big game in Perth at the new stadium.  Go Tigers!!!
It’s an impressive stadium and.......
.......our boss from the farm gave us his members seats for the game!
Unfortunately we’re in the 4th qtr and Tigers aren’t looking good.

Happy Mother’s Day.....


Happy Mother’s Day to our Mums from two dusty kids!  This is what we look like after a day’s work picking rocks. 
We come across quite a few really big rocks......


















.....that Tac smashes up into pieces with a sledge hammer so we can pick them up!
It’s bloody hard yakka!!

“Calenup”


Spent a few nights at Merredin (in the Wheatbelt) and took in the sights.  This rock formation was like a mini version of “Wave Rock” a few hundred km South from here.

This will be our home for the next 5 weeks or so while we pick rocks on the property.
It is one of the 8 farm houses on the huge wheat and sheep farm where we will be working. This particular section of the farm is called “Calenup”.

Flat tyre!!

Amazing ‘silo art’ along the journey......
......which you had to see to appreciate the size and detail.



A tasty feed of blue swimmers that we......



.....caught off this jetty in Ceduna, along with a few tasty squid!

This local bloke was reeling in snook after snook next to us!
Tac is having a laugh at a roadhouse in Eucla along the Nullarbor!

He was not laughing so much this morning when we woke up in a lopsided camper.  The tyre had gone down overnight after a shard of steel pierced the tyre.

We made it!!!!

We said goodbye to Tocumwal after a few months of camping on the river.
Before we left we took a trip to Albury to see our good friends Noel and Raylee who we met early on in our trip over 2 years ago.  It was fantastic to see them both again and we look forward to the next time we meet!
Kathy came to see us off with her beautiful dogs "Smokey" and "Danny Boy".  We sure will miss their daily company and promise to come back to visit.
Tac is talking to "Danny Boy" a one of a kind beagle who had a funny personality.
We made it home after over two and a half years on the road!! What an incredible journey we had through our vast and spectacular country.  We can't wait till the next trip.  Stay tuned we will keep you posted........,

The Big Lap is almost complete......

Enjoying our last week of fishing on The Murray before we head for home..
We caught a few more of these magnificent looking cod and of course returned them to the river to swim another day!
We are going to miss our friend Kathy's two gorgeous dogs "Smokey" and "Danny Boy" who we play with everyday.
