G'day all! Well i don't feel like i could be further right now from the familiarity and comfort of the East Coast...i have finally arrived in OFFICIALLY the middle of very dry, arrid, vast NOWHERE! Turn down the heat a little, add a bit more lush greenery and i could actually be back in my beloved also-in-the-middle-of-nowhere Edgcott!
