CRIKEY.

Didn't realise it was that long since an update.
Well time to fix that.


All that rain the other month has resulted in a major change out here. The grass is green and the place almost looks habitable!

Green Paddocks

However Lake Percol is still in existence, I guess the cooler weather means it will take a while to dry up.

The cool weather (below zero most mornings out in the field) has had other affects as well, the generator at the remote had a slight fuel leak at the tap on the fuel tank, here's what it looked like each morning...

Frozen fuel

Finally, one for the "I'm not bogged" files.

Dan, trying to dig his way out.

We were madly trying to finish the grid before the end of this stint as we are to mobilise to South Australia for the next stint.
We had one line left to read when Phil left, Dan took over operations at the Line Dogbox and a couple of days later I left (had to be home for Split Enz concert) and Pajda flew in from Perth to take over at the remote.
