Kununurra - weather is 26c to 30c, beer is cold, we now need to find enough gold to get
home,,,,,,,,,,

Where did you find the gold?
My fiance and I will be heading up in 34 days (not that I'm counting!) and plan on doing some prospecting :)
Thanks,
Jason.

Mt Magnet,
Cue,
Meekatharra,
Nullagine,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Forget the
Pilbara generally for detecting. The spinifex is real bad. It's high and covers 90% of the ground. Burn it at yer own risk - $250,000.00 fine or 14 years in jail - it's arson. Two Victorians got done last year after the WA
Police traced back to their
home address.

Hi Bilbo, glad to hear that you were successful in your aim to find gold. (must have found quite a lot to cover fuel costs for that chevy engine you have).
How is your better half and the 'baby'. ....... Truth be known it was the 'baby' who dug up the gold...ha ha ha
It is only just over six weeks before we get on the road now and looking forward to it.
Enjoy the rest of your trip.
Cheers
Deanna and Bevan
