This morning Lara is off and Chris is filling in ..... we've had a good time talking building and house stuff while Kaylia frolics in the water outside. I can see her through the window ... squirting the hose around. It's amazing how she's not bothered by the cold water! She's been there for 2 hours and she is still very happy.
I was showing Chris the photos of the house from 10 years ago .... with all his hard work to paint the house, he can really appreciate the difference. .... and from the house, we got onto travel ... and from there to the Kimberleys and the desert
.... and from there my mind wandered to Marie and Jacomo and how we went exploring the Canning Stock Route in 1977 .... so I have used Google Maps and Google Earth to retrace that trip through the desert. I haven't been in contact with Jacomo for years ... so I tracked him down and we spoke on the phone.
The red marker at the left shows where it was .... the track at the right is the sort of country ... except that there were no tracks for much of it.
The photo to the right is the Wolfe Creek crater ... it's about 1-2kms across ..... a strange and mysterious place not far from Balgo.
