Looking Forward to Innamincka

Ive been a member of ExplorOz for almost 2 years now and get a lot of pleasure out of the different characters contributing to the Forum.

When I saw the Gathering listed, and having read stories from previous Gatherings, I thought I might try to get there. When I told my wife that we are going to Innamincka there were some raised eyebrows.

It's a long way from Perth. So I thought we could tie in a trip to Melbourne and get a couple of little things done to the Trakmaster at the factory.

When we picked up our van 12 months ago I mentioned that we were going over and I met Pesty in Clare, Ruth and Willem in Birdsville (I'll bring you a pressie, Ruth. I don't want that branding iron on my butt) and almost met some more members on the Nullarbor if we weren't in such an un-necessary hurry. It was very nice.

We will be going from Melbourne up thru Broken Hill to Innamincka. I have an EO window sticker on the back of the van and on the vehicle windscreen. Sing out on CH40 if you see us.

I know we will like everyone there and I'm looking forward to making new friends in other states for future trips.

We are off on Sunday 15th. Nullarbor, Eyre Peninsula, Wakerie, SW Victoria, Melbourne, Mildura, Broken Hill, Innamincka.

See you there.
