Yesterday was uneventful with the morning spent cleaning and sorting out the Nissan and caravan, putting everything back in it's place. It took forever but at last it was done so Angie and l decided to head into Atherton and do a few jobs and also treat ourselves to lunch at a cafe. We felt so odd sitting on this couch watching people going about their day seeing we'd just spent four and a half weeks in the middle of nowhere in mostly isolation. Surprisingly taki...

Everything was still wet from the rain yesterday so packing up was a bit of a pain. Boo was a great help getting the wet washing off the line an...

I got the last seven days of dirty clothes, the towels and sleeping bags and took them down to the creek. After a few hours they were all washed, with the help from Angie (god l love this woman!). Marty also drove the Nissan down into the creek and him and the girls washed it until we didn't recognize it...
