Thanks for the welcome. Have some loose ends to tidy up prior to departure, most likely August/September. Probably head north from
Brisbane, touring North and Western QLD then home for Christmas.
Booked in to
Tamworth for Country Music Festival in Jan, then heading south.From there we're keeping it flexible, though there is a function in
Perth at Easter we'd like to make, but we'll see. Probably north from
Perth after doing
South west corner, across to
Darwin, then down the centre. Should the opportunity to pick up some work present itself, that would have a bearing.I've had considerable trucking experience, though I've more recently worked in Real Estate. Joan has worked in retail and we'll have a crack at most things. We've budgetted for 12 months of idleness, so it's not a big issue either way. We're not wealthy, but we've worked hard and long, the kids are well and truly adults now and this isn't a practice run. A wise man once said that very few people arrive at life's end wishing they'd spent more time at the office!
One of our 6 kids asked us what we're going to do when we get back. Our response was that we reckon we're good for another 30 years, 30 divided by 6 equals 5 years and her shift starts in 2010. They're not sure whether we're fair dinkum.
Getting back to the rig photo. If I take a shot on a lower resolution will this solve the problem?
Mick.
