That's got the suspense going Karen, waiting patiently for everyone else's photos and trip reports.

 Could you post up the gps co-ordinates/location for this camp spot so I can cross reference it to my camp spots or add another top one to my list .
Thanks

Well we only just got home about 3pm today after a stop over in Gladstone.

What a week, it went way too quick for my liking!

Both Deb and I had a great time and it was good to catch up with some old friends and meet some new ones. The week was a mixed one with sunny days, windy days and rainy days but the bad weather couldn't damper our spirits. Talking about spirits Debs new drink is Gin and Tonic with Lime! Thanks for that JT and Raewyn.  :cheers:

Oh well back to top dressing the yard with fresh fraser sand.

Thanks for that one Karen



Well on our way back down the Island we did the usual rubbish stop just past the Maheno. All week I've been running 22 psi and stopping up in the soft sand without an issue. Well with the camper on this is the outcome. Instead of dropping pressures it only took 5 mins and 3 quick hits with the Maxtrax and we were on our way again.

Finally !! All the sand is gone, busted 2 vacuum cleaners in the process and the truck has never looked so clean. Mental note to self "no more donuts with the windows down" Thanks to everyone that came, was great catching up with old friends and making new ones and I am sure everyone had a ball as I know we did. I'll posts some pic's soon as I get time...

Cheers

A serious question - I note most had annex walls up.  Why?  Weather? Mozzies?  Just because?
