20181226.1 – Wednesday – Keith to Dimboola

20181226.1 – Wednesday – Keith to Dimboola As I mentioned previously, I didn’t sleep one wink last night, so I have been tired today. I stopped at a layby parking spot for a break.  I pulled up in the shade of some trees off the road, and climbed into my trailer for a nap. It […]

20181226 – Wednesday – Keith Showgrounds

20181226 – Wednesday – Keith Showgrounds I camped at the Keith oval and Showgrounds last night.  It was a fairly noisy night. The whole street next to the Showgrounds was lit up with fairy lights for Xmas, and later on in the evening there were fireworks. As is normal for me on my first night […]

20181225.2 -Tuesday – Adelaide to Tailem Bend

20181225.2- Tuesday – Adelaide to Tailem Bend. It is a bright sunny day, and the first day on my travels with my camper trailer. I drove to Mt Barker Showgrounds first.  It was around mid-day when I got there, and I wanted to see how well my trailer insulation worked. I parked under some trees […]

20181222 – Saturday – Off to Port Elliott At last I am on the road again. I have had my trailer insulated. I have had a cover made for my solar charged battery. I have my bed newly made with  brand new duna  and new sheets and pillow slips. And here I am sitting sideways […]

20181215-Saturday- INC cafe

20181215 – Saturday – Inc Cafe The number plate on my trailer has the paint worn off.  I didn’t know what to do about it.  I did’t have any white paint and although I knew that I only had to go to a Government service centre to purchase a new one, that would mean I […]

20181214 – Friday – Xmas is coming

20181214 – Friday – Xmas is coming I haven’t posted in a week. My trailer has been insulated and I have cleaned it out and remade the bed and taken out all the motley array of blankets and put in the new sheets and duna and I have also packed my old green duna in […]

20181210 – Monday – Adrian’s birthday

20181210- Monday- Adrian’s birthday Today is Adrian Dangerfield’s  birthday.  Adrian isn’t on facebook, so I suggest that anyone who has Carol’s email address, email her to wish Adrian a happy birthday. Adrian is my 2nd cousin and I am very fond of him.  I have lots of Dangerfield cousins in Adelaide but I didn’t “seem” […]

20181207 – Friday – Verity’s

20181207 – Friday – Verity’s  Today was a bright sunny day, rather hot, but still nice and I woke up feeling restless and not wanting to do the “usual” things.  I felt like a break, like going for a drive, but I like to have a “destination” to go to, rather than just drive off […]

20181206 – Thursday – My brother-in-law This morning Jeff came down to tell me that his brother  (my brother-in-law) was picking him up and they were going for lunch at the West Beach Surf lifesaving club. From there they were going on a tour around the sights of Adelaide. I met Robbie when I became […]
