G'Day Geoff

What part of the channel country do you plan on visiting - I was born and raised on Cooper's Creek and also spent some years on the Georgina River whilst my Father was managing cattle stations out that way.  Beautiful part of the country - especially if you can get a peek at it just after a good wet season - truly spectacular...

I used to live on cattle station between Boulia and Bedourie from 92-95 and then another between Windorah and Birdsville from 95 till 2000. Was a fantastic lifestyle...
