Heading to the Canning in may and we are looking for somewhere to store our 14 ft camper in Alice while we do the C.S.R. part of our travels. I will be contacting caravan parks in the area with regard to storage, any other suggestions. Thanks,dennis.

Gday Dennis,
Your welcome to leave it at my place if I'm still here.....hopefully I would have sold up and goneby then, but if you cant find anywhere and I'm still here, send me a MM closer to the date and you can put it in my yard.
Otherwise try Macdonnell range CV park.....I reckon they will store it.

Cheers
Hairyl

Hi Hairy, Why ever do you want to leave beautiful Alice. We used to work on cattle stations around the Alice.
We left in the late 70s. Now we wish we could go b ack to live. We should've bought a house when we left there.
The prices now are unbelievable. Ill health and the cost of housing prevents us from doing anything but visit on our holz. What part of town are you in?
Hope all goes well.
Take care.
Bye Sally.

Hi Hairy,
Sorry to hear that but we understand. You won't get called racist by us.
We believe that there are the good & the bad in all walks of life. The colour of the skin is not the issue. It is the behaviour and ability to live with all who share the land we live in. In any country.
Our ancestors were treated very badly too but I've only seen reference made to this once.
A lot of them sent out here against their will. Young children included. Sent out here in squalid conditions in the same boats as hardened crims. Some of the children were only from orphanages. Young girls were raped. We, too, have our story. Nothing will ever change the suffering these kids endured. They are dead and gone. We've moved on.
However it's a free country and we all have different opinions. I don't want any arguements. It's a tedious issue, I don't think anyone can ever agree on.
We hope things work out for you. We've been told thatKatherine is not a good choice now either, especially in the wet. It was our second choice at one stage.
Take care.
With best wishes. Neville & Sally.

Hi DZ,

Yep try Bendan at MacRange Big 4, he usually stores vans there for people travelling on without them for a reasonable charge.

P.S.

You can also leave your camper trailer here if going over the Simpson Desert, no charge as long as you come back to get it!!

Yep, the MacDonnell Range big 4.,lock up storage.
I f staying at Wiluna, go out to gunbarrel grapes Travellers rest. They are great, a little way out of town but certainly beats the racket behind the pub where the caravan park is. Michelle would have their number I think.
Take care, safe travels.
Bye Sally.
