SHE
SAID:
We
went back into town to check out the Graham Andrews Parklands, the Vortex Rain-Making Gun, &
for me to get a few shots around town.
After
lunch the cleaning bug hit us, with Geoff getting the ute cleaned of
most of the Birdsville, Betoota & Bedourie dust....there was a
lot, he said.
I
tackled a couple more cupboards that had piles of red bulldust in
them!!! We will be finding dust/sand for months to come!
We
joined in the campfire dinner; for $20 it is all you can eat Beef
Casserole, Chicken Curry, Rice & Damper. Also dessert!

In 1902 desperate times called for desperate measures in regard to the drought affecting Charleville. So, why not fire some cannons at any passing clouds and expect rain? Not a drop of rain was produced, of course, but at least they had a go!
Somehow Varena's suggestion that the car may need a clean ended up with me doing the cleaning. It certainly was very dirty from our outback driving. There were clear splodges of different coloured dirt on the ground when I finished, gathered from all the different dirt roads and tracks we've been on.
