Mitchell 25th June

We arrived at Mitchell and set up camp at Neil Turner Weir. Roy and Warren spent time time selecting the high ground as the camp site was
Mostly on black soil notoriously bad once wet. Right on queue it started raining around Midnight. 26th June
Happy Birthday Dad miss u heaps. Some of the cars with Caravans started moving up onto the Bitumen. We heard a vehicle having difficulty getting his van out and eventually he ended up getting stuck so Warren had to grab his snatch strap and backed the prado up and tows the car and van onto the hard surface.It rained for two days and we had mud every where so we decided to move on and left for tambo via augathella where johnos family own the only butcher shop in town.
Augathella 27th, We met John's cousin Colin frazer in the butchers shop and had a good old yarn, picked up some meat then headed for tambo where we camped at scrubby bend for the night. We walked Into town and had a coffee at the local Pub. Boy was it strong no sleep that night.
