Its actually the 4th Thursday afternoon, I just noticed the date being incorrect.
Don't forget to click on the photos to enlarge them.
The rain hung around all of June, It seems as if it never went away since I returned from Coopernook. Today though, is the second full day of sunshine with the temp rising to 22deg this afternoon and I'm happily packing the last of my gear in the car and caravan for my trip to Lightning Ridge.
First thing tomorrow at 8.30am the caravan is booked in at Custom Caravans Raymond Terrace for another external door to be fitted, for under the front seating area, I've found these external doors a fabulous idea and are worth the money spent. The picnic table I ordered on the net and delivered the very next day will be attached to the side of the caravan and with the de flappers, the attachments will be screwed into the wall and with a couple of large holes for the other end of the de flapper in the roller, then there is the rope tracks to be riveted to the other side of the caravan so I can hang my home made very green en suite and lastly I hope they have time to check the broken front leg of the van, I'm told the boys knock off at 2pm on Fridays.
It's sometimes hard not having a man around to do fiddly jobs, it can be costly but hey what can I do.
I expect Ruby and I will be hanging around Raymond Terrace for a few hours, maybe then as the time passes I can gauge what distance I can travel before sunset and decide where to camp for our first night. I'm really hoping to get out around or past Denman but we will see how long it takes to finish the job.
I've a few neighbors looking out for the home while I'm away so that puts me at ease. Karen wont have to worry about my mail as bills are all paid thru the bank now. The rest is only junk mail.
