Gee it's lonely here in St George. I wish ever one would hurry up and get here

Today's prices for fuel at St George
Diesel average $1.24
ULP $1.28
Gas at BP 79.9

There are some eating Yabbies around but there is not many bait size ones

The Campground is occupied by a mob of Kangaroos and a handfull of Emu's

Bush camping is available 500 metres along the Beadmore Dam road from the highway beside the river

I will respond to any questions tomorrow

Bill and Pauline

Hi Bill

Puts a new meaning to "talk to the animals" LOL.

I've been told the new D-MAX is "almost" ready. We look like leaving here on Sat 26th, into Brisbane on 27th. Swap vehs on Mon 28th and then off to St George.

Save us a spot amongst the gum trees ....

Bill,

Thanks for the updates :))

Where have they been trying for the yabbies??

John T, Bruce and Annie and My mob are arriving Thursday so there will be a few more to keep you company.
I think Bruce and Annie are going to stay at the Pelican Rest Caravan Park for the night at this stage.

See you on Thursday

Cheers Kev

Best wishes

The Non Smoking area depends on which way the wind blows from the campfire ;)

Hi Kev
Anywhere up wind would be good.
Going by the temperature reports already, priority for this Southern Man might be some shade and a cooling breeze.
