They will be off again on Saturday 28th Aug after they have packed up their caravan, metal detector, dog "Cassie" & sister Robyn & her hubby Gordon & off to Meekatharra to do some gold prospecting


After a couple days free camping at Chapman Pool & Alexander Bridge.
Off we went to stay with friends Di & Mike in Nannup. Mike was training the neighbour on driving the Bush fire brigade tanker. Bob went along for the ride while they did some bush bashing along the fire trails.

The local IGA supermarket in Augusta bought one of the brightly coloured cows from the "Cow parade" that ran from March to June in the Margaret river area & then they were auctioned off for local charities. It's great when you walk into the shop & see the cow standing in middle of all the fresh vegetables.


Purple wildflowers that were out in abundance at Chapman pool campsite.


Hamelin bay is about 20kms from where we are housesitting. Beautiful spot, this is all the remains of the jetty that once stood here. Karri, sandalwood was shipped to England in early part of this century.
