Anne from Drysdale River Station
Hi all,
We got 65 mm rain yesterday and have now had about 1,100 mm for the wet so we have gone over the average. If it was widespread, which it may have been as I was told it rained all day yesterday in
Kununurra and in the other direction Kuri Bay got 118 mm last night, then the Drysdale could come up.
I saw someone put up ‘bog’ photos last week, how was that done? If the river comes up high and anyone is interested I will try to put up a photo for you to see what it’s like when you can’t cross it. I may have trouble though with photos as our radio repeater phone line is SO SO slow, but I can try.
cheers, Anne

Hi Anne, im still going to try to get up your way some time in April or May, might have to take my time going up through the Tanami.
I wrote to you about a job, but i guess i'l look in the mines, as im a Caterpillar mechanic by trade, or try some other station.
Im only going to work up there for the experience, just something ive wanted to do for a while, but now dont have too much time, as always!!
Ive always wanted to see the
Kimberley after the wet, i think it will be beuatiful.

Hi Mick,
Look forgive me but I had a crash with my computer and lost some of my mail. I had them re job both from this site and other
places where I put up notices. Quite a few e-mails in fact. In them surprisingly there were several Micks / Michaels, in them there was for example one not comming till 05 another to whom I could not provide a suitable job to his travel companion.
As I said forgive me but which one were you ? I just can't recall who said exactly what. Can you email me direct again and clear it up for me please, I wouldn't have knocked back a mechanic unless there was a good reason we couldn't suit each other.
If you don't have direct mail address just go to our web site and get it again.
thanks, Anne

easter shouold still be plenty of water about.
Cheers and cold beers
